Wallingford, CT (USA) – Ultra Electronics - DNE Technologies, a provider of tactical voice and data communication solutions, announces two new products that support modern, high-speed data radios. DNE introduces the VersaMux 4000, a new four-channel circuit multiplexer in a 1-RU chassis, and the CV-HTU-16M, a standalone unit with both CDIM and FOM protocol conversion capabilities. Both products are cornerstones for DNE's expanded product lines for 2005.
The VersaMux 4000 allows a user to multiplex four copper or fiber 8 Mbps digital trunk groups onto a single aggregate for transport, consolidating field traffic at a van or shelter for efficient support of higher speed radios. This traffic consolidation results in fewer cable runs, improving set up time and mobility for deployments. In addition, the VersaMux 4000 provides significant weight and size reductions when compared to legacy trunk group multiplexers. The VersaMux 4000 offers user-configured port modules, providing the user the ability choose from NRZ, CDI, and fiber interface types when configuring a system. This modular flexibility will improve system availability and provide an extended return on investment and an overall operational savings when compared to fixed-configuration legacy equipment. DNE plans on adding functionality to the VersaMux 4000 by expanding the complement of modular option cards available for this line throughout 2005.
In addition to its multiplexing functionality, the VersaMux 4000 also performs NRZ-CDI-Fiber Optic Modem (FOM) conversion, making it compatible with DNE's CV family of products, including the new CV-HTU-16M.
DNE’s CV-HTU-16M is a single-circuit, standalone unit which supports the bridging of Fiber-Optic, NRZ and CDI protocols so routers, cryptos, and other NRZ devices can be positioned at significant distances from the satellite terminal. Compatible with earlier CV products, such as the CV-2048, CV-8448 and the currently deployed CV-MCU, the CV-HTU-16M offers enhanced features, such as Auto-Baud Detect and a DTE/DCE selection, minimizing the need for field adapters and reducing connect-up time. The CV-HTU-16M can be ordered with an integrated TFOCA™ connector for 50 [ m multimode cable applications or an integrated TFOCA-II™ connectors that supports either 62.5 [ m multimode or 9 [ m singlemode, providing direct interface to a CX-13295 cable.
DNE’s CV line of conversion products, as well as the VersaMux 4000, allow interoperation with deployed Fiber Optic Modems, such as the MD-1272 or the GSC-54, and also convert this modem traffic to NRZ or CDI signaling. DNE’s new products support both TRI-TAC digital trunk groups and new, emerging satellite technologies while utilizing the reliability and economy of fiber connections. The FOM modules are interoperable with deployed JTC3A 9109C compliant FOMs at rates up to 16.384Mbps. They are also interoperable with DNE’s TAC Multi-Service Access Concentrators and the widely-deployed AN/FCC-100 Multiplexer.
DNE products permit full use of emerging broadband satellite services, while allowing data communication and encryption devices to be physically grouped to simplify monitoring and control of communication links. The lightweight and compact units reduce the size and weight of a deployment and simplify set-up.
