Las Vegas at Hexagon 2012 – Intuicom announced a new product, available immediately, to help increase productivity by extending the reach of wireless communications. Utilizing superior frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology, the MCR-900 provides long-range data transport with continuous throughput of 115 Kbps. The MCR-900 offers the capability and flexibility to meet a variety of wireless networking challenges.

Designed for broad functionality, the MCR- 900 offers the flexibility to serve in simple point-to-point communication or in more complex multipoint and IP-bridged networks.

For example, when combined with the Intuicom RTK Bridge-C, the MCR-900 provides a way to extend the reach of RTK corrections far beyond normal cellular coverage. This application will enable precision applications such as farming, survey and construction that use GPS/GNSS-based RTK corrections to work in areas where it would otherwise be impossible.

"The MCR-900 has been tested in the most extreme environments and continues to run day in and day out. It fits in perfectly with our overall machine Ccontrol portfolio at Leica Geosystems, and we're proud to offer it to our customers," said Nick Guadagnoli, OEM business development manager for Leica Geosystems Machine Control Division.
