Details
Silvus StreamCaster MIMO MANET data mesh radios have been profiled before at a past edition of MilCIS, and since that time have seen tremendous additional uptake in the military and security market. Particular proof of performance has come from use in the most challenging real-world operations.
A key differentiator that has powered Silvus data links and kept them operating even in difficult or contested spectrum environments has been Silvus' cutting edge Spectrum Dominance features, which provide Low Probability of Intercept and Detection (LPI/LPD) and Anti-Jam capabilities as add-on functions to bolster our already secure, proprietary Mobile Networked MIMO (MN-MIMO) radio waveform. Silvus Spectrum Dominance 2.0 adds additional new functions to the already powerful initial suite of standard and optional features, giving operators additional means to operate without detection, and to continue operating even if detected and electronically attacked.
Our current line up of Spectrum Dominance 2.0 features includes automated power control, dual frequency link, silent mode, interference cancellation, and interference avoidance, among others, which together constitute the industry's most powerful collection of LPI/LPD/AJ capabilities that can be deployed in tactical scenarios, whether singly or in combination as operational conditions dictate. Silvus Spectrum Dominance 2.0 is the latest expansion of a proven suite of MN-MIMO waveform enhancements that deliver operational advantage, save lives, and ensure mission success.
