DJI O4 Ground Station

Description

The DJI O4 Ground Station is a powerful wide-area transmission solution designed to extend communication coverage and improve connection reliability for DJI Enterprise drone operations.

Built around an advanced 12-antenna array, the O4 Ground Station provides strong omnidirectional coverage and enhanced signal penetration, helping maintain reliable communication in complex environments where buildings, terrain, vegetation, or other obstacles can interfere with traditional drone transmission.

The system supports both Gateway Mode and Relay Mode, giving enterprise operators greater flexibility when deploying DJI Dock 3 and compatible DJI Matrice aircraft.

In Gateway Mode, the O4 Ground Station can connect directly with DJI FlightHub 2 infrastructure to extend operational coverage. Relay Mode allows the station to function as a communication relay between compatible aircraft and a DJI Dock or remote controller, making it especially useful in areas where direct communication may be obstructed.

Designed for fixed deployment and continuous operation, the DJI O4 Ground Station is an ideal solution for public safety, infrastructure inspection, surveying, remote operations, and large-scale autonomous drone deployments.

Operating Modes

Gateway Mode

Gateway Mode allows the DJI O4 Ground Station to connect to supported cloud infrastructure through Ethernet or a compatible cellular connection.

This allows compatible DJI Dock operations to use the Ground Station to help extend video transmission coverage into areas with weak signal reception.

Relay Mode

Relay Mode allows the O4 Ground Station to operate without requiring an internet connection.

When positioned in an elevated, unobstructed location, the Ground Station acts as a communication relay between the aircraft and compatible DJI remote controller or Dock system.

This can help overcome obstacles such as buildings, terrain, trees, and other physical barriers that can interfere with direct communication.

FAQ

What is the DJI O4 Ground Station?

The DJI O4 Ground Station is a wide-area transmission system designed to improve and extend communication coverage between compatible DJI Enterprise aircraft, docks, remote controllers, and cloud infrastructure.

What is the difference between Gateway Mode and Relay Mode?

Gateway Mode connects the Ground Station to supported network/cloud infrastructure and can help extend coverage for compatible Dock operations.

Relay Mode allows the Ground Station to act as a communication relay between compatible aircraft and a remote controller or DJI Dock without requiring an internet connection.

Is the DJI O4 Ground Station compatible with DJI Dock 3?

Yes. DJI Dock 3 is supported by the O4 Ground Station.

Is it compatible with the DJI Matrice 400?

Yes. The DJI Matrice 400 is supported in Relay Mode.

Is it compatible with the DJI Matrice 4E and Matrice 4T?

Yes. The Matrice 4E and Matrice 4T are supported in Relay Mode.

Does the O4 Ground Station provide RTK?

Yes. After position calibration, the O4 Ground Station can provide RTK reference data to connected compatible aircraft.

Does it require an internet connection?

Not necessarily. Gateway Mode uses network connectivity, while Relay Mode can operate without an internet connection.

Does the O4 Ground Station have a backup battery?

Yes. The Ground Station features a built-in backup battery that allows it to continue operating temporarily if external power is interrupted.

Can it be powered using PoE?

Yes. The LAN and WAN interfaces support power input from compatible PoE+ or higher power supplies, depending on the installation requirements.

Can it connect to third-party equipment?

Yes. The O4 Ground Station supports integration with compatible third-party devices and standard IP cameras, providing additional flexibility for enterprise deployments.

Is it designed for permanent installation?

Yes. The O4 Ground Station is designed for fixed enterprise deployments and continuous operations.

Where should the O4 Ground Station be installed?

For best performance, the Ground Station should generally be positioned in an elevated location with as few physical obstructions as possible. Proper site evaluation should be completed before permanent installation.

Is Relay Mode available everywhere?

No. Relay Mode and certain transmission frequencies may be restricted in some countries or regions. Operators should confirm local regulations and DJI's regional compatibility requirements before deployment.
