Hardware Overview
The Cisco IR530 Resilient Mesh Range Extender (IR530 Range Extender) provides unlicensed 902-928MHz, ISM-band IEEE
802.15.4g/e/v Wireless Personal-Area Network (WPAN) communications to diverse Internet of things (IoT) applications. It extends the
range of the RF wireless mesh network, providing longer reach between WPAN endpoints and other WPAN networks. There are two IR500
Mesh Range Extender products in the IR500 family: The IR529 and IR530. IR530 represents a high performance, new generation of the
Cisco RF Mesh range extender.
The IR530 Range Extenders take full advantage of Cisco networking expertise in IPv6, security. It provides an open, high performance RF
mesh solution based on the following standards:
IEEE 802.15.4 g/e/v
IETF 6LoWPAN
IETF Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks (RPL)
IETF Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP).
