Data Radio / Telemetry Transceiver
Raveon's RV-M7 data radio modems are high-speed FCC certified data radios designed for telemetry, SCADA, AVL, wireless data, mobile-data and remote control applications.
Raveon’s new M7high-speed UHF data radio transceiver increases data throughput in narrow-band wireless systems. Included in each unit, are advanced networking, error correction, and diagnostics. It may be ordered with an IP65 weatherproof enclosure. And because it is the only radio modem built using rugged “single-board” construction, it is extremely rugged – and cost effective. With prices starting below $399 the M7 is the most powerful, most economical data radio available.
The Optional internal GPS ( GX option) enables the M7 to transmit its position, data, and status (voltage, speed, heading, temperature, I/O bits..) a pre-set intervals using either conventional carrier-sense methods or with efficient TDMA channel access. A GPS tracking system built with M7 transceivers, can track up to 20 radios with one-second updates or 200 with 10-seocond updated. The M7 is the fastest most efficient UHF AVL radio available. See www.ravtrack.com for more details on its GPS tracking and TDMA abilities.
