- RDK Extender
...
- RDK Extender profile is a Yocto based RDK miniature build with opensource OpenSync agent
- OpenSync agent is cloud agnostic and it forms mesh orchestrated by Plume cloud
- RPI4 target is chosen for extender profile since this target is chip and widely available
- Two external Wi-Fi dongles are used for 2.4GHz and 5GHz radio support
- OpenSync's minimum requirement on the WiFi radio is the support for 2AP and 1 Station interface
- Conceptually, RPI4 extender can be used with different Gateway devices(which has OpenSync agent). But currently validated with TurrisOmnia RDKB GW
- Prerequisite: Need to contact Plume to acquiring TLS certificate and backhaul credentialReference :RPI 4B Model Reference Platform: Extender build instructions
