Rajant Corporation, a company which serves worldwide customers in the military, first responder and mining markets with secure communications on-the-move, has announced that its BreadCrumb ME2, a rugged, wireless transmitter-receiver designed for mobile mesh networking, has secured the Federal Information Processing Standard or “FIPS” 140-2 validation by the National Institute of Standards and Technology also known as NIST.

  

FIPS 140-2 is a U.S. government computer security standard used to accredit cryptographic modules.

 

This validation covers the BreadCrumb ME2 hardware as well as BreadCrumb firmware version 10.0 and qualifies the device to be used by U.S. federal agencies and Canadian agencies for the protection of sensitive information.

 

Battery-powered, with rugged enclosures and single-switch operation, the BreadCrumb ME2 is ideal for uses including but not limited to perimeter security, sensor data collection, video surveillance, convoy security, and RFID tracking.

 

In conjunction with other BreadCrumb devices, the Rajant BreadCrumb ME2 uses InstaMesh technology to form a mesh network that is said to quickly adapt to moving network elements. As reported, the portable wireless mesh network node supports an open-standard IEEE 802.11 b/g radio with up to two antennas to enable data, voice, and video applications.
