M420B FlexNet® base stations offer a strategic communications option to deploy endpoints in remote or densely populated areas. Their efficient transceivers can transmit and receive in a 250kHZ band of spectrum which provides more dedicated data channels, more granular data and higher network capacity.
These compact, efficient base stations fit into space-constrained environments. They require fewer access points than other network architectures, making it easier to send status and usage information point-to-multipoint. Sensus licensed radio spectrum ensures optimal base station performance, free from interference by other wireless services or radio devices. It also eliminates the risk of being taken over by emergency service providers.
Our FlexNet® communication network connects base stations directly to endpoints across large geographic areas. This, greatly reduces the number of network backhaul connections and lowers operations and maintenance costs. The FlexNet network delivers double the transmit power of competitive systems over primary-use licensed spectrum – ensuring reliability for mission-critical applications.
