microNode

Miniaturized Wireless Module for Smart Grid, Remote Sensing
and Location Tracking Applications

The On-Ramp Wireless ULP microNode provides unprecedented range and robustness for wireless sensing applications in an ultra small package. Optimized for low-power applications requiring multi-year battery life, the On-Ramp microNode, sets a new standard for wireless networking performance, system cost, and applicability.

 

 

On-Ramp’s Ultra-Link Processing™ (ULP) technology offers a 25× range advantage over competing solutions, equating to a more than 600× advantage in coverage. This means that ULP is the first system using extremely low-power technology to provide metro-scale networking in the unlicensed ISM-bands. ULP also provides a 25× network capacity advantage, which substantially lowers network infrastructure and cost.

The microNode's open, standard interface provides easy integration with a variety of customer devices in need of a high performance wireless module optimized for size and power consumption.
