BreadCrumb® ES1-2450R

Portable Wireless Mesh Network Node

The ES1 is an IP67 Kinetic Mesh network device intended for use in IIoT applications and light-duty vehicles. This portable mesh network node contains two transceivers with up to four external antenna ports and provides Ethernet and Wi-Fi access point interfaces to enable data, voice, and video applications with multiple mounting options.

ES1 BreadCrumbs are designed to perform flawlessly in a variety of environments, such as Oil & Gas, and integrate seamlessly with all Rajant BreadCrumb models to form a complete solution. 

BreadCrumb ES1 Key Features: 

• Combines Kinetic Mesh backhaul, Wi-Fi access and layer2 switching across interfaces in a single device

• Outdoor-rated:

o -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to 140°F) temperature range

o IP67

o Optional DIN rail mount kit for existing NEMA enclosures

• Rajant’s patented InstaMeshR networking software, enables the network to quickly adapt to rapidly-deployed and quickly or constantly moving network elements

• 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio frequencies supporting a wide variety of applications and environments

• Lightweight, portable, and low power consumption

• Support for several strong cryptographic options used for data and MAC-address encryption and per-hop, per-packet authentication

• High bandwidth for data, voice, and video applications

• Scalability to hundreds of mobile, high-bandwidth nodes

• Integrated Wi-Fi Access Point service for compatibility with millions of commercial off -the-shelf (COTS) client devices such as laptops, tablets, smart phones, IP cameras, sensors, and other IP devices

• Self-configuring operation for fast and easy deployments

• Reliable and fast off -loading to Ethernet via multiple, simultaneous bridge-mode links through Automatic Protocol Tunneling (APT) feature

• Mesh Clustering to designate per-BreadCrumb sub-meshes that will only mesh with a user-specified series of nodes, useful applications include:

– Enabling two BreadCrumbs to operate in a point-to-point (PTP) capacity on the same channel as other mesh nodes, eliminating the need to purchase a third-party PTP link for backhaul

– Isolating one or more groups of BreadCrumbs to mesh with each other and not with other nodes outside the user-defined mesh cluster
