CS2412 Series
CS2412
Video Transmission Module
The CS2412 is a broadband access and data transmission module supporting both Star topology and MESH networking. It supports multiple bandwidth allocations and adopts a flat system architecture design, effectively reducing system latency, improving transmission capacity, featuring long transmission distance, high data throughput, and strong anti-interference capability. Supporting four frequency bands — 800 MHz, 1.4 GHz, 1.5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz — the module features automatic power control and transmit power up to 30 dBm( could be customized). The device provides a PH2.0 user interface for seamless integration. Weighing only 106 grams, the CS2412 is designed for weight-sensitive drone and unmanned system applications where compact form factor is critical.
Key Features
Engineered for reliability in demanding drone and unmanned system environments, the CS2412-30 delivers enterprise-grade wireless video transmission in an ultra-compact form factor.
Star & MESH Networking
Supports both Star topology for point-to-multipoint communication and MESH networking for self-healing, decentralized connectivity across complex operational environments.
Multi-Band Support
Operates on four customizable frequency bands — 800 MHz (806–826 MHz), 1.4 GHz (1427.9–1447.9 MHz), 1.5 GHz (1420–1530 MHz), and 2.4 GHz (2401.5–2481.5 MHz) — to meet diverse regulatory and deployment needs.
30 dBm Transmit Power (Could be customized bigger)
Maximum output power of 30 dBm enables reliable communication over long distances, supporting Star network ranges up to 150 km and MESH network ranges up to 50 km.
Flexible Bandwidth
Supports 1.4 MHz, 3 MHz, 5 MHz, 10 MHz, and 20 MHz bandwidth configurations, allowing optimal balance between data throughput and transmission range for various scenarios.
Ultra-Compact & Lightweight
At only 106 grams and approximately 99 × 92 × 59 mm, the CS2412-30 is designed for weight-sensitive and space-constrained drone and robotic applications.
Auto Power & Frequency Control
Intelligent automatic power control adjusts transmit power based on signal quality. Automatic frequency point control ensures seamless network recovery and optimal channel selection.
Typical Rated Values
| Model | Power Supply Voltage | Max System Power Consumption | Max Transmit Power |
|---|---|---|---|
| CS2412-30 | 12V ± 10% | 8 W | 30 dBm |
Important Safety Notes
- TX/RX antennas must be connected at all times. Operating without the TX antenna may cause permanent damage to the device.
- Adequate heat dissipation is required for continuous operation.
- Received signal strength at any port must not exceed +10 dBm, or permanent damage will occur.
- Recommended antenna spacing: > 0.1 m between antennas on the same module; > 1 m between modules (applies to both powered and unpowered modules).
Frequency & Bandwidth
Frequency Bands
- 800 MHz Band: 806 – 826 MHz
- 1.4 GHz Band: 1427.9 – 1447.9 MHz
- 1.5 GHz Band: 1420 – 1530 MHz
- 2.4 GHz Band: 2401.5 – 2481.5 MHz
Factory-configured frequency bands (800M, 1.4G, 1.5G, or 2.4G). Custom frequency bands available upon request. End users cannot modify frequency settings.
Bandwidth Options
- 1.4 MHz
- 3 MHz
- 5 MHz

Auto Frequency Control
On startup, the module attempts to deploy the network using the last saved frequency point. If unsuccessful, it automatically tries other available frequency points. The center node re-selects frequencies upon loss of synchronization, while access nodes initiate a new search process to find and join an available network.
Auto Power Control
The center node operates at maximum rated transmit power. Access node transmit power is automatically adjusted based on real-time signal quality, optimizing power efficiency and reducing interference across the network.
Transmission Distance
Software-configurable distance limits allow you to select the appropriate version based on your deployment scenario.
