Adax SCTP/T and DTLS

Fast, Secure and Reliable Delivery of Valuable and Timely Data for Drones, UAVs,  IoT and M2M Networks

Adax SCTP for Real-Time Protocol (SCTP/T) was designed to meet the exacting demands of IoT, Drones, UAVs and M2M networks. Now with self-healing AI to fix networks on the fly.  Authentication chunks designated in RFC 4895 secure SCTP-based Associations from packet injection, hijacking or accidental disconnection, thus securing the millions of simultaneous associations required by today’s networks. When your drone flight or ground mission really must succeed, this is the protocol for you.

Steeped in the tradition of telecom and real-time reliability and robustness, with thousands of SIGTRAN installations, the Adax SCTP/T and DTLS modules meet the challenges of network growth and performance, while maintaining service and data delivery and thwarting malicious intent.

Adax DTLS over SCTP/T

DTLS is an optional module that delivers transport security by providing communications privacy for client/server applications to prevent eavesdropping and detect tampering or message forgery. Applications using Adax DTLS can use all the transport features provided by Adax SCTP/T and its extensions.

Features

Adax SCTP/T and DTLS achieves world class levels of signaling performance and delivery of valuable and timely real-time data unsurpassed in the industry, providing:

New AI features provide self-healing for Drones, UAVs, fix applications to  remote corners of the network

• Up to 10,000 simultaneous associations for maximum connectivity

• Secure authentication with performance & visibility

• Protocol implementation in the OS kernel for accurate timer control, rapid response, and quick recovery

• In-service intelligent monitoring and detection of link degradation, anticipating the need to offload to secondary links

• Enhanced multi-homing provisioning options improve fail-over robustness and redundancy

Applications with high-throughput and/or low tolerance of latency requirements include:

• Drone, UAV, and time-critical remote devices

• Vehicle control, telematics and updates

• Remote personal healthcare and some wearables

• Video surveillance

• Location tracking

• Location-based marketing and advertising

• Industrial robotics and environmental control

• Smart home control
