Introducing RBF: Long-Range Security for Uninterrupted Connections in Alarm Systems Gone are the days of worrying about limited range or unreliable connections in your alarm system. RBF, a cutting-edge two-way radio protocol developed by Roombanker, delivers a powerful solution. This innovative technology ensures long-range, low-power consumption, and high-security data transmission, guaranteeing seamless interaction between Smart Security Hub and all wireless security peripherals. What Makes RBF Wireless Technology Stand Out? RBF technology is a proprietary protocol setting a new standard for wireless communication in alarm systems, offering unparalleled range, uncompromising reliability, and intelligent power management. With RBF, you can experience the peace of mind that comes from a truly secure and dependable alarm system. Kilometer-Grade Coverage for Diverse Scenarios At the heart of RBF technology lies its Sub-1GHz frequency spectrum and FSK/DSSS modulation techniques, enabling unparalleled wireless communication over distances of up to 3,500 meters (in open spaces), ensuring seamless coverage even in the most challenging environments.
Two-Way Wireless Communication and Real-Time Data Exchange RBF's two-way communication architecture empowers seamless data exchange between the Smart Home Hub and connected devices, guaranteeing real-time data transmission and enhanced reliability. Energy Efficiency: to enter a power-saving mode until an "Arming" signal is received. This intelligent power management extends battery life significantly compared to one-way communication schemes. Instantaneous Alerts: Detectors can promptly alert the Hub upon detecting an event, and the Hub instantly responds with confirmation, ensuring timely and reliable incident notification. Reliable Data Transfer: RBF incorporates a robust retransmission mechanism to safeguard data integrity. If a detector fails to receive a Hub response, it automatically retransmits the data, guaranteeing uninterrupted communication. The Hub can send "Disarming" commands to detectors, prompting them Omnidirectional Antenna Design for Wider Coverage RBF's omnidirectional antenna ensures consistent signal strength in all directions, maximizing coverage area and effectively combating signal attenuation caused by obstacles. This comprehensive coverage makes RBF ideal for complex environments and diverse applications.
Automatic Signal Adjustment for Extended Battery Life RBF intelligently adjusts its radio transmission power based on signal strength. In favorable signal conditions, it automatically reduces power consumption, extending battery life, minimizing maintenance costs, and enhancing environmental sustainability. How Does RBF Fortify Security of Alarm System to Against Jamming Attempts In the realm of alarm systems, security is paramount. RBF technology goes beyond mere data transmission; it actively safeguards your system against potential jamming attempts, ensuring the integrity of your security network. Here's how RBF technology achieves this unparalleled level of protection: DMA (Time Division Multiple Access Technology) TDMA acts as a traffic controller for RBF devices, meticulously assigning time slots to each registered device. This synchronized communication eliminates interference and ensures that every device gets its turn to report its status (heartbeats) to the Smart Hub. This includes information like battery level, alarm status, and signal strength. Benefits: Eliminates interference between devices, enhancing communication quality. Supports dynamic time slot allocation, enabling a single Smart Hub to manage up to 128 devices seamlessly. LBT (Listen Before Talk) When an alarm event triggers, especially when multiple incidents occur simultaneously, RBF devices employ the LBT mechanism. Before transmitting an alert, each detector "listens" to the channel to check for congestion. If the channel is busy, the device either hops to another channel or waits for an opening, preventing channel congestion and data loss.
Benefits: Ensures all alarm information reaches the hub promptly and efficiently. Maintains overall system order and reliability. FHSS (Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum) RBF boasts 50 frequency hopping channels, enabling devices to swiftly switch to a different channel if the current one is jammed. This renders the system impervious to external signal interference. Scenario: Intruders attempt to disrupt communication by continuously broadcasting a signal on the same frequency (e.g., 868MHz). RBF's Response: RBF devices seamlessly switch to an alternate frequency, maintaining reliable signal transmission. AES-CCM Encryption RBF employs AES-CCM data encryption, a robust security measure that renders intruders' jamming, signal interception, and data replication efforts futile. This combination of FHSS and AES-CCM encryption ensures the utmost security for your wireless alarm system. Other Features You May Want to Know About RBF Technology RBF technology stands out as a comprehensive solution that addresses the critical needs of modern alarm systems. Its exceptional security features, ultra-low power consumption, effortless firmware upgrades, and global adaptability make it an invaluable asset for safeguarding homes and businesses worldwide. Let's explore these valuable features: Ultra-Low Power Consumption and Extended Standby Time RBF wireless devices are meticulously designed for energy efficiency, adhering to CE/RED low-power consumption certification standards. With a standby power consumption of less than
2 microamps, RBF devices can operate on just two AA batteries, providing an impressive standby life of up to two years. This translates into reduced maintenance frequency and cost savings. OTA Multicast for Effortless Firmware Upgrades RBF technology empowers you to upgrade the firmware of all connected devices remotely via OTA (Over-the-Air) multicast, eliminating the need for cumbersome serial cables. With its high transmission speed and large throughput, RBF can handle firmware updates for multiple devices simultaneously, ensuring your system remains up-to-date with the latest features and security enhancements.
