SATELLINE-M3-R4 is a UHF data receiver mod-
ule in a lightweight single board structure. It is
designed to be integrated into a host device, for
instance for receiving GNSS correction data in a
land surveying rover.
It is equipped with all necessary features; such
as 70 MHz tuning range (403...473 MHz) in one
hardware, selectable channel width and low
power consumption. The radio module
conguration can be done with the SATEL
SL-commands or SATEL Conguration
Manager -soware.
SATELLINE-M3-R4 is compatible with other wide-
ly used SATELLINE modules and with
SATELLINE-EASy radio modems, as well as with
other manufacturers’ radio protocols.

of metres up to around 80 kilometres. Thanks to
a store and forward function, any radio modem
in a network can be used as a master station,
substation and / or repeater.
SATEL radio modem networks are exible, easy
to expand and can cover a wide variety of
solutions from simple point-to-point connections
to large networks comprising hundreds of modems.
Even for expanded networks, only one operating
frequency is required.
Setting up a local data transfer network is
quick and cost eective with SATEL radio
modems. The wireless network is independent
and free of operator services. The cost of
operation is either free of charge or xed,
depending on the frequency used. SATEL
radio modems are type-approved in
over 50 countries.
SATEL radio modems are always on line and
provide reliable, real-time data communications
over distances ranging from tens or hundreds

SATELLINE-M3-R4 is a exible
module which makes it a suitable
unit for dierent uses. It is an updated
version of M3-R3 module. It has two
modulations more; 8FSK and 16FSK
which gives more speed to the radio
interface.
SATELLINE-M3-R4 can be added to
existing systems; it is compatible
with widely used SATELLINE-EASy
family radio modems and it
supports also other manufacturers’
radio protocols (such as Pac-Crest-4FSK,
-GMSK, -FST).
The channel bandwidths 12.5 and
25 kHz are soware selectable and
SATELLINE-M3-R4 has a wide 70
MHz tuning range. End-users can
select the operation frequency
within the range of 403...473 MHz.
Technical Specications
SATELLINE-M3-R4 complies with the following international standards:
EN 300 113, EN 301 489-1, -5, EN 60950-1 and FCC Part 90.
The module can be manufactured
with AES128-bit encryption sup-
port on the air interface to ensure
the privacy.
SATELLINE-M3-R4 is supplied with-
out a housing in PCB format with
RF-shielding, facilitating
installation in to the customer’s
own housing or into a host device.
SATELLINE radio modules suit all
kind of needs of OEM customers,
no matter the level of customization.
