PRC-2080 tactical low band VHF multirole transceiver system

The PRC-2080 military transceiver system is a low band VHF communication device specifically designed for multi-role tactical operations. It is an extremely compact and lightweight unit, featuring only essential controls for ease of operation. The PRC-2080 is available with a secure fixed frequency (FF) digital encrypted mode, an anti-jamming digital encrypted frequency hopping (FH) mode and a digitally encrypted free channel search (FCS) mode. It is manufactured to comply with MIL-STD-810F for immersion, shock, vibration, dust and temperature rating specifications.

The PRC-2080 (ECCM) encrypted and frequency hopping options represent a significant breakthrough in the field of tactical military communications and the total package addition of the ECCM options costs as little as one quarter of competing military transceivers.

The PRC-2080 tactical system addresses four main roles. As a 5W backpack used with a short antenna it is suitable for squad/platoon level applications. With the PRC-2080 deployed in the 25W docking station and fitted with a full length tactical whip antenna it becomes capable of use at company/battalion/brigade level for use over ranges of 3 km to 25 km. When deployed in the vehicle docking station and combined with the 50W VHF amplifier the systems as in the PRC-2082, PRC-2083 and PRC-2084 can be used in vehicle, base station and rebroadcast applications.
