note that all of our armored vehicles - tanks - artillery - soldiers ...etc are equipped by subsystems of taclan and connected to this system even for the chinese and russian armored/vehicles are reequiped by data/communication equipments from Kongsberg and connected to the taclan network
TacLAN - Kongsberg Gruppen
The TacLAN family of wired and wireless broadband Local Area Network equipment provides an integrated and well suited solution for the tactical users. The combination of wired and encrypted wireless transmission capabilities creates a communication scenario supporting the wide range of user applications in the Combat Zone.
TacLAN provide exceptionally high data rates and allows multiple voice connections in parallel, which facilitates the complete platoon to operate on the same network, thereby reducing the radio load of the soldiers.
WM600 - Tactical Broadband Wireless Module
WM600 brings the principles of Network Centric Warfare to the lowest level in the organization. WM600 provides voice, video and data communication within Command Posts, between combat vehicles or between combat vehicles and dismounted soldiers equipped with the portable SR600. Data rates up to 2,5 Mbps are supported.
WM600
Command Posts
TacLAN components are combined to allow both wired and wireless connection of CP vehicles. Using the WM600 Broadband Radio for internal distribution of Command and Control Data allows wider dispersion of vehicles to protect against enemy fire.
The broadband long range capability of the WM600 allows vehicles to exchange data also when on the move - the Command Post is thus operational at all times. No delay due to deployment of fibre cables at arrival - or delayed departures due to fibre cable retrieval. Fibre may be used to enhance data capacity and avoid RF emissions.
With the flexibility of TacLAN your Command Post is ready to go - anywhere, anytime.
Fighting vehicles
The TacLAN communication equipment supports all Command and Control activity in the fighting vehicle. The TR600 Tactical Router and Media Gateway will ensure that data will be distributed and delivered at the best communication link available. Situational Awareness and broadband target information flows seamlessly between the fighting vehicles, fire support teams and dismounted soldiers.
The WM600 Broadband Radio support wireless video and imagery transfer between fighting vehicles as well as to higher echelons. Intechanging real-time video and imagery between vehicles immediately improves situation understanding and increase tempo and quality in the decision making.
TacLAN equipment offers the warriors the robust communication needed to exploit and maintain information superiority at all levels.
Sensor systems
The great benefit of the WM600 Broadband Radio is its support of live video and high resolution imagery in all mainstream formats over long distances. Providing high data rate to the echelons closest to the enemy allows the situation at hand to be presented in real-time to commanders for improved situation assessment.
Dismounted teams and fighting vehicles takes on the combined role of both sensors and effectors at the battlefield. WM600 also supports dedicated sensor systems - both manned and unmanned. The SR600 Broadband Soldier Radio is due to its low weight and high reliable data rate well suited for Command and Control and sensor data traffic to/from mini-UAV's. Data can be sent directly to the troops on the ground.
Support of a wide range of sensor applications is a very important quality of the TacLAN family of broadband wireless equipment.
SR600 - Broadband Soldier Radio
SR600 Enables a squad leader to have one common intra- and intersquad radio
Squad members have a separate net while at the same time the Squad leaders may be part of the Platoon net
Data net is common to all
Vehicles are connected using the fully compatible WM600 broadband radio
The SR600 allows data, video and voice to be forwarded seamlessly from the soldier (sensor) to the prime user of the sensor data at the decision level.
SR600
The radio can be supplied with different network throughput capacities in order to adapt to available RF bandwidth resources. Depending on chosen network capacity, the radio can handle from several virtual parallel IP based voice networks and data transfer in one RF network.
Soldier systems
There is an increasing focus on the support of a C4ISR integrated dismounted soldier. New technology improves survivability, lethality and sustainability of the soldier. Improved Situational Awareness is the key to this improvement. The SR600 Broadband Soldier Radio provides the wireless communication infrastructure needed to carry the combination of voice, Situation Awareness data, Command and Control data as well as video, high resolution images and targeting information.
SR600 can be used both inside the team/squad as well as between squads, support vehicles or fire support teams. SR600 combines long range and broadband IP-based communication to become the preferred radio for the networked warrior.
TR600 Tactical Router and Media Gateway
TR600 allows the warfighter to fully utilize the different communication links available out of a single vehicle or a Command Post. Exchange of information is needed at all times, but as the battle develops ranges and terrain require diverse communication links to reach different destinations. The TR600 allows the warfighter to concentrate on producing and consuming critical C4ISR information. The forwarding of the information is ensured by optimized route selection in the TR600 routing core. The TR600 will route all data over a variety of links such as HF-radio, modems, IP aware as well as legacy Combat Net Radios, the WM600 broadband radio and a variety of SATCOM links %u2013 including BGAN and similar commercial systems. The TR600 is an integrated part of the TacLAN system and thus fully IP based.
