Drone Swarms
Coordinates communications across autonomous aerial fleets with lightweight board-level integration.
DX5 Finch is Rajant's smallest and lightest BreadCrumb — a 40 × 78 mm board-level Kinetic Mesh® radio weighing 47 g bare. Powered by patented InstaMesh® software, it forms and heals mesh connections autonomously with no central controller. It delivers 300 Mbps at 2.4 GHz and 420 Mbps at 5 GHz, operates from -40°C to +60°C, and embeds resilient mesh networking into UAVs, UGVs, and mobile robotics.

The Mesh Backbone. In Any Platform. In Motion.
BreadCrumb DX5 is Rajant’s smallest and lightest mesh radio to date: a 40 × 78 mm board-level module weighing just 47g without heatsinks. It is purpose-built for UAVs, UGVs, autonomous systems, mobile surveillance, and embedded platforms where SWaP constraints matter.
Powered by Rajant’s patented InstaMesh® software, the DX5 forms and heals mesh connections autonomously and interoperates with the broader BreadCrumb ecosystem across distributed field networks.
