The module

Dual-radio SDR for edge compute platforms

M.2 Key-M module with two AD9361 radios and an Artix UltraScale+ FPGA. Supports TDD 4x4 or FDD 2x2 for edge hosts, private wireless, and custom RF backends.

  • AI robotics

    Give robots and fleets a longer-range link than Wi-Fi, with bands you can tune for the job.

  • Edge compute

    Fits M.2 hosts and industrial PCs that need a tunable dual-radio SDR.

  • Mesh systems

    Dual-radio MIMO radio front end for multi-hop mesh, with the PHY running on the FPGA.

  • Wireless OEMs

    Add a dual-radio MIMO front end to your product and keep PHY control on the FPGA.
