Product overview
The Xingkai XK-M505E 2*10W provides an airborne communications node for UAV video, telemetry and data exchange. Its distributed, centerless architecture supports point-to-point links, multiple endpoints and multi-hop relay networks, with Layer 2 or Layer 3 dynamic routing. Two 10W RF outputs support transmission power control, while selectable channel bandwidths span 1.25 to 20MHz. At 20MHz bandwidth, the adaptive data rate is 1–100Mbps and average single-hop delay is 7ms. Single-hop communication distances are 100–300km under visible conditions and 1–30km in urban areas.
The black 10Watts×2 airborne configuration measures 125 × 115 × 46mm, weighs no more than 785g and has four mounting holes. Integration connections include two TNC RF ports, one to three 100/1000BaseT Ethernet ports, serial interfaces and auxiliary audio connections. Power can come through a twist-lock battery or main cable; this configuration specifies an 18–32VDC supply, while operating and standby current figures are given at 16.8V. Network and video extensions are optional. Operating temperature is −40°C to +80°C, with IP66 protection and customized IP67/IP68 options.
