Its technology expertise includes multi-radio mesh networking, lightweight Internet of Things (IoT) protocols, and Software-Defined Networking capabilities.

In terms of patent litigation, Dynamic Mesh Networks Inc. primarily operates as a patent assertion entity (PAE). While our internal tracking shows one defendant case, external sources indicate the company has acted as a plaintiff in multiple patent infringement lawsuits, notably against Cisco Systems, Inc. in the Eastern District of Texas, asserting patents related to mesh networking equipment and solutions. Conversely, the company has been a defendant in a challenge brought by Unified Patents before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB).

A notable case for Dynamic Mesh Networks Inc. is the proceeding where it appears as a defendant in Unified Patents v. Dynamic Mesh Networks Inc. before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. Unified Patents is an organization known for challenging patents asserted by non-practicing entities. The company also pursued litigation against Cisco Systems, Inc. in the Eastern District of Texas, alleging infringement of five mesh networking patents.
