How Rajant Works
Rajant’s Kinetic Mesh® networking technology uses InstaMesh® to connect people, machines, vehicles, sensors, and autonomous systems across changing environments without relying on fixed network layouts.
Built on Kinetic Mesh® and InstaMesh®
Rajant’s Kinetic Mesh® networks are powered by InstaMesh®, the protocol that enables Rajant nodes to discover, evaluate, and use available network paths as conditions change. This architecture allows the network to adapt as assets move, links change, or new paths become available.
Layer 2 Distributed Architecture
Rajant operates as a distributed Layer 2 architecture, allowing existing communications systems to operate together without network redesign or IP reconfiguration. This enables Rajant to overlay existing infrastructure and support highly mobile environments where fixed network assumptions do not apply.
Cross-Transport Layer 2 Fabric
Rajant can unify RF, fiber, LTE/5G, Wi-Fi, satellite, Ethernet, and tactical radios into one operational network. Instead of treating each transport as a separate backhaul path, Rajant allows data to move across available communications paths as conditions change.
Packet-by-Packet Path Selection
Rajant evaluates communications paths packet by packet, allowing traffic to use available paths based on current network conditions. This supports communications across dynamic environments where link quality, movement, interference, or obstruction can change quickly.
Constant Protocol Overhead
Rajant’s protocol overhead remains constant as the network grows. Because the architecture does not rely on expanding routing tables, Rajant maintains predictable network behavior as additional nodes are added.
Simplified Network Management at Scale
BC|Commander gives operators tools to configure, monitor, manage, and maintain Rajant networks from deployment through ongoing operation.
Distributed Edge Compute
Rajant extends beyond networking by supporting distributed edge intelligence through Rajant Health technologies including Flying Cowbell and CORA. This enables compute, applications, and AI to operate closer to the people, machines, and systems generating the data.
Extending the Architecture
Rajant’s networking architecture provides the foundation for distributed edge computing, network management, and open application integration. Together, these capabilities enable organizations to deploy AI, autonomous systems, and mission applications closer to where operations occur while maintaining one unified communications architecture.
BC|Commander®
Configure, monitor, and manage distributed Kinetic Mesh® networks from deployment through daily operations. BC|Commander provides centralized visibility and control while supporting networks that continue to evolve as operational requirements change.
Flying Cowbell®
Flying Cowbell extends Rajant’s architecture with distributed edge computing designed for AI-enabled applications, autonomous systems, sensor processing, and mission software operating at the tactical edge.
With configurations available for under $1,000, Flying Cowbell helps make distributed edge computing more accessible across autonomous systems, mobile patforms, and distributed operations.
CORA
CORA provides an open application framework that enables third-party software, mission applications, and future technologies to integrate with Rajant’s networking architecture without vendor lock-in, supporting an open ecosystem that continues to evolve alongside operational requirements.
