SOL8SDR-H Special Role Radio
Based-on DTC’s game-changing SOLO8 Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform, the SDR-H is equally at home operating as a tactical ad hoc network (MANET) IP Mesh node, a P2P COFDM transmitter or a P2P receiver streaming video to a tablet PC. The SDR-H also offers dual on-board HD-capable video encoders and support for a variety of different camera interfaces including HDMI (with optional cable), an “open mic” full duplex audio channel, in-built GPS receiver and on board SD card storage as well as 2W of total output power.
The Special Role Radio joins DTC’s versatile family of IP Mesh and P2P COFDM radios designed to meet the requirements of a diverse range of surveillance and battlefield applications. It combines a familiar “soldier radio” physical form factor, “bullet proof” construction and simplified user interface with the ability to use standard MBITR-style battery packs, chargers and holsters.
