DICOM®RF20 RADIO SYSTEM
A comprehensive system of functionally interrelated handheld, manpack and mobile transceivers securing encrypted and reliable communication (TRANSEC + COMSEC) in extremely difficult conditions.
The transceivers allow operation in multiple frequency bands (multiband), with multi-purpose use of available modes of operation (multirole + multimode). Functional compatibility with RF13 and RF40 radio systems is guaranteed.
EPM handheld and manpack transceivers are designed for communication at the tactical level in all military branches. They are used in particular where high quality communication with lightweight equipment is demanded.
Mobile EPM transceivers are designed to be built into all tracked and wheeled vehicles.
The radio system is complemented with RF1302S and RF13250S transceivers (CCI category), which, in addition to standard analog modes of operation with an open transmission, support special operating modes (SOM) and are certified by the Czech National Security Authority for transmission of classified information up to the Confidential level (NATO CONFIDENTIAL).
Key features of DICOM®RF20 system
Secure and reliable communication
TRANSEC – frequency hopping technology. COMSEC – communications secured using AES cipher.
Variable operating modes
Operation at a fixed frequency in 25 MHz to 145 MHz band according to STANAG 4204. Special frequency hopping operating modes – HW20 waveform.
Data transmissions
Data transmissions over MANET networks according to MIL-STD-188-220 or Broadcast.
Using GPS
Reception of GPS signal with automatic sending of positional reports on the background of normal voice or data session – G-track system – Blue Force Tracking (BFT).
Rebroadcasting
Optional automatic relaying radio communication at fixed frequencies and with frequency hopping.
Mobile transceivers (RF2350, RF2050, RF23M, RF20M)
Compact, durable vehicle transceivers operating in HF and VHF bands with power up to 50 W. They are designed for use in wheeled and tracked vehicles with 12 V or 24 V power supply.
Handheld transceivers (RF23, RF20)
Handheld and manpack transceivers operating in the HF and VHF bands are designed for tactical level of command in all military branches. They excel due to their lightweight, rugged design, ease of use and exceptional specifications.
Manpack transceivers (RF2305)
Handheld and manpack transceivers operating in the HF and VHF bands are designed for tactical level of command in all military branches. They excel due to their lightweight, rugged design, ease of use and exceptional specifications.
Rebroadcast station (AR20)
This station consists of RF20 transceivers and a rebroadcast unit to increase the range of VHF communication or ensure communication in very rugged terrain.
