RADIO SS450

The SS-450 remote transceiver is a high quality, full featured, half duplex radio transceiver, designed specifically for narrow band data transmission applications which employ filtered base band or audio sub carrier data modulation.

These radio transmitters are fantastic for transmission of data over long distances, for example we have used these to transmit start time of days from the start to the finish of motor rally stages that were many, many kilometers apart. As these radios are transmit and receive units, so they can also be used as relay stations so the transmission distance can be virtually unlimited.

All connections extend from a single 15 way Din connector for simple connection.
