Third-Party Devices
Introduction
Third-party modules are externally developed hardware components that implement the LightForce interface specification, enabling plug-and-play interoperability within the broader ecosystem. This approach allows integrators to extend system capabilities while preserving architectural consistency and defined communication boundaries.

4G LTE Module The 4G LTE Module provides wide-area network connectivity, enabling LightForce to exchange telemetry, supervisory commands, or data streams over public or private cellular infrastructure. It is typically used for beyond line-of-sight (BLOS) deployments where extended coverage, remote monitoring, or integration with cloud-based services is required. |
