Radio repeater to extend the range of SensusRF network
SensusRF Radio Repeater is a bi-directional, compact module for automatic meter reading in fixed network or Walk-by/Drive-by setups. It supports up to 298 endpoints, operates on an internal battery, and offers superior range with line-of-sight distances up to 1000 meters. With dual-frequency compatibility (868 MHz & 433 MHz) and advanced relay capabilities, it outperforms similar devices in reliability and flexibility.
Features
- Extension of SensusRF fixed radio networks by relaying meter data between endpoints and gateways
- Support for periodic, on-demand, and alarm-based data transmission
- Support for up to 298 endpoints per repeater
- Autonomous operation using an internal battery with no external power supply required
- Bi-directional configuration via radio for remote setup and adjustments
