Deployed CIS

The Deployed CIS solution is a standalone system that comprises of two independent sub-systems:

Virtual Local Area Network Information System (VLAN IS)
Long Range Communications (LRC) System

The VLAN IS provides a means to collate, process and store up to 80TB of information accredited to IL5. The rugged small form-factor design and high performance of the system allows organisations to extend the enterprise to the extreme tactical edge, standing up powerful, highly mobile data centres in even the most hostile environments.

The LRC System is a commercial "walk-on fit” providing Beyond Line of Sight (BLOS) secure voice and data communications for the collection and dissemination of data globally using the world's smallest Class 1 BGAN terminal.

DC Power Distribution Unit

The DC Power Distribution Unit (PDU) distributes a single source DC supply to connect up to 17 devices.

The device is designed to meet rigorous requirements of Def Stan 61-5 Part 6 Issue 6 and provides voltage surge, over-current and reverse polarity protection for all outputs as well as attenuation of conducted emissions above 1MHz.
