Shoham, Israel, June 29, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mobilicom Limited (Mobilicom or the Company, NASDAQ: MOB, MOBBW ; ASX: MOB), a provider of cybersecurity and robust solutions for drones and robotics, today announced the launch of its latest product, the MCU-70, the latest in its MESH (device-to-device) Networking Cybersecure Software Defined Radio (SDR) Series delivering high-performance wireless communications. With its relatively small size and lightweight design, MCU-70 delivers superior performance for mid-sized and long-range unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) where form-factor-to-capability performance is critical. Designed for durability in rugged outdoor environments, MCU-70’s communications range of up to 100 miles/150km equips drones with the communications needed for new missions and applications, expanding Mobilicom’s addressable markets for both commercial and military applications.

Commercial uses include beyond line of sight (BVLOS) long-range inspections including electric utility transmission lines, oil and gas pipelines, and railways, as well as long-range delivery functions.

Military applications include UAVs and vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance missions, and loitering (also known as suicide or kamikaze drones) as well as border and sea patrol.

Mobilicom’s latest MCU product improves communications link performance of mobile mesh (device-to-device) and wireless mobile IP communications for high-definition video and data which expands coverage distance while fortifying stability, resilience, and durability. MCU-70 is U.S. National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) compliant.

MCU-70, just like Mobilicom’s entire MESH Networking suite and its SkyHopper Datalinks, is a cybersecure SDR that comes installed with the base level of the Company’s industry-leading security software. Additionally, Mobilicom’s ICE Cybersecurity suite can be layered on the networked hardware and software systems for a comprehensive and holistic protection strategy. The MCU product family has a well-established track record of success, field proven with many of Mobilicom’s Tier-1 global customers under a wide range of deployments on various products and platforms.

“Our latest secure communications product, MCU-70, opens up new markets for Mobilicom while delivering an even stronger value proposition to our Tier-1 manufacturing customers that can integrate our end-to-end solutions for their small and mid-sized long-range drones. As the industry evolves, the long-range drone segment is set to grow to $38 billion over the next decade and we are well positioned to provide the critical systems that drive high-performance drones for both commercial and military applications, “said Mobilicom CEO Oren Elkayam.
