I've been looking at this technology for out of band management of sitemonitor-connected devices for about 6 months now. I mentioned this briefly in another thread, without naming the technology directly. Waiting for my preferred silicon vendor to complete the US certification on their modules b

yes, particularly where you can install a base station/central hub in an area and get data from your things for "free"... Much less costly over a 10 year timespan than putting a SIM card in a SCADA device with quad band cellular modem, which will probably be at minimum $10/mo per active SIM in bul

Yepwe use allot of 900MHz FHSS and narrowband radios with just 9600bps or less...we have used 2 .4 maxstream where several 900MHz links already existed. Jaime Solorza On Oct 29, 2015 8:16 PM, "Jeremy" wrote: > This technology seems like it would be perfect for SCADA stuff wouldn't > it? We

This technology seems like it would be perfect for SCADA stuff wouldn't it? We provide service to our local irrigation company and they have terrible connections, but only need a few kbps every few minutes so it still works great. They are just sensors that monitor water flow through canal system

There was a company that had a 2.4GHz narrow band unit that would go 7 miles. I looked for them a few months ago and couldn’t find them. Rory From: Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] On Behalf Of Eric Kuhnke Sent: Thursday, October 29, 2015 2:42 PM To: af@afmug.com Subject: [AFMUG] When you want
