WHAT IS EDGE NETWORKING

Wired communication hardware that allows data to move within a single airframe.

Networking hardware in three form factors, Boards for cable mating, Cores (modules) for board mounting and Pucks for direct airframe integration.

Modern Autonomous Systems are complex assemblies of sensors, actuators and compute hardware. They operate in RF denied, remote environments and must be able to sense, compute and act without a link to a ground station.

Mobile platforms contain sophisticated wired networks internally, using ethernet. Our Edge Networking hardware allows data to be moved and controlled within the platform.

Our hardware is qualified to operate in harsh environments via lab testing and empirically through 10,000s of hours in the field.

Temperature Ranges

−40°C to +85°C

Using automotive and military grade components, our Industrial boards are rated for −20°C to 80°C and our rugged boards achieve -45°C to 85°C and higher.

MIL-STD-810H Qualified

Standard

We simulate UAV and ground vehicle conditions by lab testing against vibration, shock, temperature, altitude and humidity to MIL-STD-810H standards. Some of our hardware is even radiation tested.

Rugged power input stages

standard

Nearly all our boards are designed to operate on noisy voltage supplies, with transient, reverse and overvoltage protection on board, making them suitable to drop into UAV bus voltages colocated with noisy sources like motors or radios.

Absolutely tiny form factors

As small as 27 × 27 × 10 mm

We take liberties in squeezing our circuits down as small as possible. Whether this means custom transformer design, novel thermal management, or smart mechanical design methods. All to squeeze more networking bandwidths into small form factors.

From orbit to the ocean floor.

From orbit to the ocean floor.

The same BotBlox hardware powers platforms separated by kilometres of altitude and atmospheric pressure.

Wherever reliability, weight and integration speed matter more than configurability, we are already in the bill of materials.
