Smart radio:
Superior radio design for maximum performance

4RF has a long history of developing high performance radios, and the Aprisa SR family builds on this same engineering excellence.

The Aprisa SR and Aprisa SR+ are distance-engineered and optimised for SCADA and telemetry applications, providing reliable, robust performance however demanding the conditions: what we call ‘real world radio’. RF performance is unbeatable, with attention paid to every element of the design: transmitter, receiver, modulation and efficiency.

The receiver maintains exceptional low noise operation via excellent sensitivity for greater distance and high selectivity and intermodulation suppression for superior protection from interference.

This performance is complemented by fast switching circuitry and high transmit power ensuring long distance operation with exceptional system reliability and availability.
