DTC launches Special Role Radio
Domo Tactical Communications (DTC) has developed a new Special Role Radio (SRR) for tactical and special operations, the company announced on 5 February.
The SRR is designed to meet the requirements of operations where robust, encrypted, tactical mobile communication links are needed to provide enhanced situational awareness. The radio employs the DTC COFDM waveform to provide high bandwidth data, video and audio in challenging, dynamic, non-line of sight environments.
The new radio has a robust construction and simplified user interface with the ability to use industry standard battery packs, chargers and holsters.
The radio features dual on-board HD-capable video encoders and support for a variety of different camera interfaces, including HDMI, to stream live video in an operational environment. The radio also features an open mic full duplex audio channel, in-built GPS receiver and onboard SD card storage as well as a full 2W of output power.
