About Us
Bringing to Life the Promise of Everywhere Productivity
Identifying early the need for private network infrastructure that could effectively support fully mobile wireless communications in industrial settings, Rajant Corporation developed its patented Kinetic Mesh® technology—and in turn became the pioneer provider of the most adaptable, scalable, and readily deployed fully mobile network on the market today.
Rajant was established in October 2001, after founders Robert Schena and Paul Hellhake recognized the significant shortcomings in traditional wireless mesh technology, particularly when it came to mobile voice and data networks used by first responders. The Rajant team envisioned a new, more robust mesh technology that would allow these networks to be fully mobile and mobility-enabled, and operate reliably in even the most demanding environments. Enter the Rajant Kinetic Mesh® network. Explore Our History.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Rajant Kinetic Mesh® technology?
Rajant Kinetic Mesh® is an Intelligent Edge networking technology designed for dynamic, mobile environments where traditional fixed infrastructure falls short.
Unlike conventional wireless systems, it enables continuous, adaptive connectivity across moving assets, people, and devices. Powering Industrial AI applications that demand resilience, low latency, and real-time decision-making.
How do Rajant’s BreadCrumb® wireless nodes enhance network connectivity?
Rajant’s BreadCrumb® nodes are the building blocks of a self-forming, self-healing Kinetic Mesh® network.
Each node communicates directly with every other, creating a web of redundant, high-throughput connections that ensure uninterrupted communication, even when conditions change or assets move.
This decentralized design eliminates single points of failure, maximizing uptime and mobility.
InstaMesh® vs. conventional point-to-point connections.
Conventional point-to-point networks depend on fixed links that can break under motion or interference.
Rajant’s InstaMesh® routing protocol dynamically reroutes traffic in real time, automatically choosing the fastest, most reliable path.
The result: continuous, mobile, and intelligent connectivity for operations that never stop moving.
What are the benefits of Rajant’s InstaMesh® for IIoT applications?
For Industrial IoT environments, InstaMesh® provides the low-latency, adaptive communication required to keep machines, sensors, and AI systems synchronized.
It delivers instant data exchange, self-healing reliability, and scalable capacity, empowering predictive maintenance, automation, and autonomous decision-making at the edge.
How can Rajant Kinetic Mesh support real-time tele-operations in mines?
Mining operations depend on remote visibility and control where connectivity is often limited.
Rajant’s Kinetic Mesh® delivers real-time communication and video streaming for tele-remote equipment and autonomous vehicles, even underground.
Its multi-radio BreadCrumb® nodes maintain reliable signal and low latency. Keeping operators safely in control from any distance.
Rajant Kinetic Mesh network vs. traditional WiFi solutions.
Traditional WiFi networks are static, fragile, and reliant on centralized infrastructure.
Rajant’s Kinetic Mesh® replaces those limits with a dynamic, peer-to-peer architecture, where every node acts as both transmitter and receiver.
This ensures continuous, adaptive coverage, ideal for moving assets and mission-critical applications where downtime is not an option.
Discover Rajant’s solutions for tunnel communications.
Tunnels and underground environments are notoriously difficult for wireless communication.
Rajant’s BreadCrumb® nodes create a linear, mobile mesh network that maintains signal integrity through long corridors, curves, and obstructions.
This allows real-time monitoring, voice, and video for mining, utilities, and public safety teams.
How does Rajant’s technology enhance machine-to-machine communication?
Rajant’s InstaMesh® routing enables machines to communicate directly and continuously, without depending on static access points.
This machine-to-machine (M2M) intelligence ensures critical data is shared instantly, fueling automation, robotics coordination, and AI-driven optimization across industrial environments.
Cost of implementing a Rajant Kinetic Mesh network.
Implementation costs vary based on network size, environment, and application.
However, Rajant’s decentralized design significantly reduces the need for fixed infrastructure, cabling, or complex configuration.
Resulting in a lower total cost of ownership and faster ROI compared to traditional networking systems.
How do BreadCrumb® nodes work in enhancing network resilience?
Each BreadCrumb® acts as a multi-radio, multi-frequency transceiver that maintains multiple simultaneous connections.
If one path is interrupted, InstaMesh® instantly reroutes data through another, creating always-on resilience that keeps communications live even under extreme conditions.
Maximize network uptime with Rajant’s solutions.
Rajant eliminates the single points of failure found in traditional networks.
Its multi-path, self-healing mesh keeps assets connected, even as they move, ensuring maximum uptime and operational continuity in industries where every second counts.
What industries benefit most from Rajant’s Kinetic Mesh technology?
Rajant’s Intelligent Edge networks power operations across mining, ports, logistics, defense, manufacturing, public safety, agriculture, and energy.
Wherever mobile assets, automation, and Industrial AI intersect, Rajant delivers real-time, reliable communication to keep data flowing and decisions immediate.
