Mesh Network Solutions
Our mesh network implementations provide reliable communication across large areas without depending on traditional infrastructure.
Key Features
Long Range Coverage
Up to 5km line-of-sight communication between nodes using LoRa technology.
Scalable Network
Add nodes dynamically to extend coverage and improve network resilience.
Low Power Operation
Optimized for battery operation with solar charging capabilities.
Implementation Example
// ESP32 Mesh Network Node Configuration
#include
#define MESH_PREFIX "OnlySnailsMesh"
#define MESH_PASSWORD "mesh123456"
#define MESH_PORT 5555
painlessMesh mesh;
void setup() {
mesh.init(MESH_PREFIX, MESH_PASSWORD, MESH_PORT);
mesh.onReceive(&receivedCallback);
mesh.onNewConnection(&newConnectionCallback);
}

Deployment Guides
Network Planning
Consider these factors when planning your IoT network deployment:
- Physical coverage requirements
- Number of devices and data throughput
- Power availability and consumption
- Environmental factors
- Security requirements
Best Practice: Always perform a site survey before deployment to identify potential interference sources and optimal node locations.
Security Considerations
// Example secure communication setup
#include
// Use strong encryption
#define ENCRYPTION_KEY "your-32-byte-encryption-key"
void setupSecureComm() {
// Enable SSL/TLS
WiFiClientSecure client;
client.setCACert(root_ca);
// Enable encrypted storage
preferences.begin("secure-storage", true);
