Rack + Panel Mount Wideband SDR Radio

Wideband Military SDR Radio family


H - 1.6MHz to 30MHz


HV - 1.6MHz to 170MHz


VU - 30MHz to 512MHz


HU - 1.6MHz to 512MHz 


GTAV - 112MHz to 160MHz


GTAU - 225MHz to 400MHz


This range of radios are designed for panel and rack mount applications with standard low power capabilities.


The performance, features and capabilities are exactly the same as the Leopard1 SDR.  The only difference is the larger control head, display and keypad for convenient operations in base stations and mobile applications.

ERGONOMICS


The considerably large display and keypad offer ease of operation for mobile and naval applications. Front peripheral connectivity has been duplicated at the rear of the Badger to allow connection of accessories from either side. This feature permits a clean installation with minimal to no cables protruding from the instrument panel. Additionally, the Badger boasts a built-in three-way antenna switch, capable of automatically selecting the appropriate RF-output for either the HF, VHF or UHF band antennas.







RACK CONFIGURATIONS


The Badger has been specifically designed to be rack or panel mounted, an extension kit facilitates standard 19” rack installation. Various rack configurations for tactical or 19” mountable racks are available with or without additional power amplifier for mobile, base station and cross-band repeater applications. Tactical Racks feature a rapid release (Jerk-And-Run) capability for radios and the Power Amplifiers.






ANTENNAS

Various wideband or band-specific high gain antennas are available depending on the application and requirements.












INTEGRATED SATELLITE POSITION RECIEVER


Various satellite positioning systems can be implemented. (GPS, GLONASS*, GPS & GLONASS*, BDS*) The satellite position receiver is integrated and provides timing, position and heading information which can be viewed in the field. The front mounted GPS antenna is highly sensitive, but can be remotely mounted for reception when the Badger is installed in armoured vehicles or bunkers. The satellite position data can be displayed in Latitude/Longitude, UTM or MGRS formats. This data can be remotely acquired from a radio in the field or obtained by radio operator initiation.








HANDSETS AND HEADSETS


The radio interface can accommodate a wide variety of audio devices which includes but is not limited to military-standard handsets, headsets with passive and active Noise Reduction, as well as VOX and Bone Transducer technology for a hands-free operation.






KEY GENERATOR SOFTWARE APPLICATION

The Key-Generator is embedded in the Configuration Software and enables the user to create and manage their own secure AES128, 256 and the OTP encryption keys for COMSEC and TRANSEC modes.











REPEATERS AND RE-BRO


A tactical repeater or re-broadcasting configuration is possible by connecting any two Satcom radios with the AUX cable, and requiring minimal menu set-up. Purpose made repeater racks include a duplexer, band pass filter, power supply and charger for medium to long term repeater deployments. Repeaters and re-bro systems utilising this radio and any other legacy radio is possible using a cross patch box.







CONFIGURATION SOFTWARE APPLICATION


The Configuration Software runs on Ruggedised PC’s, Laptops or Field Tablets with Windows, enabling users to configure radios with all network parameters such as Channels, Address Book, Quick Messages, Call Sign and ALE network.
