Ethernet UAV Aircraft Transmitter Receiver 100km Frequency Hopping
Transceiver
HCL536 aircraft transmitter receiver was designed for long range
UAV video data link. It works at 800MHz or 1.4GHz bands, with
frequency hopping spread spectrum automatic technology (FHSS) to
ensure stable signal communication.
Key Features
- TDD OFDM video transmitter and receiver for UAV video data Link
- Maximum 30Mbps @20MHz bandwidth
- Networking type communication: point-to-point and
point-to-multipoint Networks or Mesh networking
- Web UI or Serial uart for management
- With 2 Ethernet ports and 3 channel serial data transmission.
- 100km long range UAV video transmitter with 5W RF power amplifier
- Uplink and downlink data stream control

Appearance of the Ethernet UAV Transmitter Receiver
HCL536 aircraft transmitter receiver supports 2 operating modes:
Access Node or Central Node. It is a web controlled wireless video
transmitter and supports up to 16 Access Nodes connected to one
Central Node. All nodes share the entire transmission bandwidth
(maximum 30 Mbps @ 20 MHz throughput).
The data from the central node to the access node is referred to as
downlink, while the data from the access node to the central node
is called uplink. The ratio of uplink and downlink data streams can
be controlled through the Web UI.
Supported Multiple network modes:
Point-to-Point Network
Point to Multipoint Network
Relay Network
Mesh Networking
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. This Ethernet aircraft transmitter receiver support IP camera,
what if I want HDMI or SDI video input?
A: The default video input is IP RJ45 Ethernet port. For cameras with
HDMI, SDI, AHD or AV output, we recommend using our mini encoder
device to encode the video/audio signal into digital data for
transmission. At the receiver end, you can connect directly to your
computer or NVR. For HDMI monitor output, our decoder device can
convert the digital data back into HDMI video and audio signals.
Q2. For the 800MHz and 1.4G band? Which one would be better?
If your local area has DVB-T or DVB-T2 digital television signal in
the 170-860Mhz range, the 1.4G band would be better. Additionally,
since GPS antennas on drones point upward and transmitter antennas
point downward, the 1.4G frequency has negligible effect on GPS
signals.
Q3. Does it support using multiple cameras on the transmitter to
only one receiver?
Yes, there are two solutions for multiple cameras:
1. 4 IP cameras -> Net Hub -> Transmitter ↔ Receiver ->
Computer Screen
2. 4 IP cameras -> NVR HDMI output -> HDMI encoder IP output
-> Transmitter ↔ Receiver -> computer screen.
Q4. Does the transmitter on the air give failsafe command to the
flight controller when the connection between air and ground will
be lost?
The serial port is transparent and doesn't actively send data to
the flight controller. This is controlled by the ground station.
You can monitor the link status via LED indicators:
| Link LED | Wireless link status |
|---|
| No light | This node is not connected with the wireless network |
| Red light | The wireless link signal is weak |
| Orange light | The wireless link signal is in middle |
| Green light | The wireless link signal is strong |
Q5. Can the transmitter and receiver be interchanged for use with
change in the setting?
Yes, the difference between transmitter (on drone) and receiver (on
ground) is:
1. Device type: transmitter is the access node and receiver is the
central node.
2. Rate ratio of the downlink and uplink. Over 30km, the best rate
ratio is 4:1 or 3:2.
