BreadCrumb® ME3 Portable Wireless Mesh Network Node
BreadCrumb® ME3 The Rajant BreadCrumb ME3 is a rugged, wireless transceiver that forms a mesh network (using InstaMesh®) when used in conjunction with other BreadCrumb devices. This portable, wireless mesh network node supports open-standard IEEE 802.11 b/g protocols with up to two antennas to enable data, voice and video applications, and requires only a single switch to operate. The ME3-24 model has been validated for FIPS 140-2 Level 2.
BreadCrumb ME3® Benefits • FIPS 140-2 certified cryptographic module, to ensure a high
level of data security. • Battery-powered for mobile applications. • Rugged and portable for applications in extreme situations. • Open-system IEEE 802.11b/g standards for compatibility with
millions of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) client devices such as laptops, PDAs, IP cameras, sensors, VoIP phones and other IP devices.
• Single switch, self-configuring operation for fast and easy deployment.
• Runs InstaMesh®, so the network quickly adapts to moving network elements.
• Unique and proven ability to scale to hundreds of nodes. • Offers high-bandwidth for data, voice, and video applications. • Supports multiple simultaneous bridge-mode links to the same
Ethernet network through Automatic Protocol Tunneling (APT) feature, therefore eliminating loops and packet storms.
BC|Commander® Management Tool BC|Commander and BC|Commander Enterprise software tools are used to configure, manage, and monitor your Rajant network.
• Topology maps show BreadCrumb and client device connections and parameters.
• BreadCrumb/client device channel, frequency, MAC address, IP address, nickname assignment, signal and noise levels and time-since-last-update.
• Channel and link speed of connections. • Manual radio, SSID, DHCP, gateway and port forwarding,
access control, security, and encryption settings.
►MININ G For open pit and underground mines, Bread-Crumb devices form a resilient network for mine monitoring and control. Typical applica-tions include Miner Tracking, Emergency Res-cue, Voice communications (VoIP), Dispatch, Routing, Health Monitoring and Video. ►MI L I T A R Y With battery power, rugged enclosures, single-switch operation and robust security, Bread-Crumb devices are perfect for military applica-tions such as Perimeter Security, Sensor Data Collection, Video Surveillance, Convoy Secu-rity, RFID Tracking & more. Depending on BreadCrumb model, security options range from WEP, WPA2, SecNet 54® to FIPS 140-2. ►FI R S T RESP O NDERS BreadCrumb devices form an instant secure network for emergency response, disaster re-lief, RFID tagging, voice communications (VoIP), PDAs, laptops, video and sensor appli-cations. The included Ethernet port can pro-vide Internet access through satellite or micro-wave links.
InstaMesh® is an advanced protocol developed by Rajant that allows for continuous & instan-taneous routing of wireless and wired connec-tions. It enables complete network mobility, robust fault tolerance, high throughput and low latency, with zero maintenance and administra-tion. The BreadCrumbs combine InstaMesh® with support for standards in wireless access, security, network monitoring, QoS and much more... In this diagram, the Rajant mesh network adapts to the changes caused by the move-ment of Node E. New links are established in real-time keeping the network available, intact and secure. Because Rajant uses primarily Layer-2 and does not use a root node or LAN Controller, mobility and bandwidth are maximized. Multiple gateways and secure mesh-to-mesh authentication are also sup-ported.
