Wireless IP tunnel radio for UAVs and UGVs.

Some platforms need more than raw telemetry on the ground side. They also need access to dashboards, APIs, diagnostics, lightweight service interfaces, or IP cameras. CY-2 supports that kind of operator-to-platform access as part of a broader mixed-data link.

Where this use case fits

Where it fits.

This guide fits teams whose workflow already depends on IP. That usually means the vehicle carries an embedded compute node, service endpoint, or network-facing payload that needs selective access from the ground side during evaluation or operation.

In those systems, the radio is not trying to behave like a full general-purpose network replacement. It is providing a practical operator-side path to onboard IP services while still fitting inside a compact platform architecture.

Typical IP tunnel setup

Typical architecture.

Onboard service side

The vehicle-side unit sits beside IP cameras, small compute nodes, or service-facing payload devices.

Ground-side access

The operator or engineer reaches dashboards, APIs, diagnostics, and control interfaces from the ground side.

Shared radio path

IP tunnel traffic can sit alongside telemetry, serial data, and video in one system.

Interfaces for IP workflows

Supported interfaces.

Ethernet is the key interface here because it allows straightforward connection to onboard network devices, compute modules, and service endpoints.

  • Ethernet for onboard IP devices
  • UART for adjacent telemetry workflows
  • USB where host-side integration requires it
  • Web UI for radio-side monitoring

Integration examples

Integration examples.

UAV with onboard compute exposing a service dashboard to the ground side.

UGV carrying an IP camera or control endpoint that needs operator access.

Robotic platform where diagnostics and APIs need a practical air-ground path.

Why CY-2 for IP tunnel workflows

Why CY-2.

The advantage is that IP tunnel access does not have to live on a completely separate communication system. CY-2 lets the team handle that access alongside the rest of the platform traffic profile.

  • Operator-side access to onboard IP services
  • Useful for diagnostics and low-rate service traffic
  • Fits mixed Ethernet, telemetry, and video workflows
  • Relevant to both aerial and ground platforms

FAQ

Questions buyers ask.

Can CY-2 create an IP tunnel between vehicle and ground?

Yes. It can support IP tunnel traffic for services such as dashboards, APIs, diagnostics, and IP cameras.

Is this only for Ethernet devices?

No. Ethernet is central for IP tunnel workflows, but the same system can also carry telemetry and serial payload traffic.
