Description
The Bittium Tough SDR Finish Vehicular VHF/UHF Software Defined Radio (SDR) is a 2-channel software-defined tactical vehicular radio. The radios help to produce and share real-time situational awareness (location, image, voice, video, and sensor data) to all levels of the organization. This improves the performance and the effectiveness of the tactical troops, and leading the troops is easier based on up-to-date situational awareness and more reliable connections. The radios provide a uniquely wide frequency range (30-2500MHz) across several frequency bands. Together with flexible configuration options and routing networks, even thousands of radios in one network are supported. Using several waveforms, even simultaneously in the vehicular radio, improves compatibility and enables operations on different levels and missions.
