HUSQVARNA EPOS™ RS5 Reference Station

Husqvarna EPOS™ RS5 Reference Station: Precision Guidance for Professional Robotic Mowing

The Husqvarna EPOS™ RS5 Reference Station is designed for businesses seeking improved satellite coverage for their wire-free robotic mowers. Built for demanding outdoor environments, it forms the core of Husqvarna’s advanced EPOS system, delivering stable satellite communication and very precise guidance across large commercial spaces. Whatever type of site you manage, this compact reference station ensures all of your robot mowers operate reliably and with outstanding accuracy.

Wide-Area Coverage for Commercial Landscapes

The RS5 Reference Station creates a stable RTK-GNSS link between your fleet of Automowers and the satellite network, helping the robot mowers operate to within 2 cm accuracy—far superior to the 8 cm offered via Wi-Fi. Each unit supports multiple EPOS-enabled machines within a radius of up to 500 metres, making them ideal for large or multi-zone grounds. This generous coverage area helps reduce the number of stations required when operating multiple robotic mowers across expansive lawns. As its housing is IPX5 rated, the reference station is resistant to rain, so you can install it with confidence in outdoor locations.

Compact and Durable Design

Weighing only 1.2 kilograms, the RS5 Reference Station remains easy to handle during installation. Its casing measures 36 cm (L) x 19 cm (W) x 36 cm (H), offering a stable and unobtrusive footprint on walls, poles or dedicated mounts. Its robust design ensures long-lasting performance—essential on large professional sites where reliability is non-negotiable.

What You Receive in the Pack

Each RS5 Reference Station is supplied with a power supply unit and 20-metre low-voltage cable, giving you the equipment required for a smooth and secure installation. The system is simple to set up and integrates seamlessly with the full Husqvarna EPOS ecosystem.

Extensive Compatibility with Husqvarna EPOS Mowers

The RS5 Reference Station is designed to be used with the following Husqvarna robotic mowers: Automower® 535 AWD EPOS®, 550 EPOS®, 560 EPOS®, 580 EPOS®, 580L EPOS®, 540 EPOS® and 520 EPOS®. It is also compatible with the CEORA® range, including the 544 EPOS® (RZ 43L and 43M) and 546 EPOS® (RZ 43L and 43M). This wide compatibility makes the reference station a valuable upgrade for commercial users looking to expand or enhance an existing fleet.

Flexible Virtual Boundaries for Smarter Mowing

One of the main advantages of the EPOS system is its ability to create adjustable virtual boundaries instead of using physical wires. These boundaries are set up within the Husqvarna Automower® Connect app, allowing you to create multiple work areas, stay-out zones and varied mowing schedules with ease. This flexibility improves efficiency on complex sites, allowing you to rapidly adapt when layouts or requirements change. It also reduces installation disruption, since there are no physical wires.

Optional Accessories

For those seeking a secure and streamlined mounting solution, the Husqvarna EPOS Attachment Kit is available to buy separately. This sturdy steel holder has been designed specifically for the RS5 Reference Station and provides a practical way to position the unit for optimum performance.
