VITAVIC 400 is a true software-defined (SD) fully digital intercom. The SD system is a DSP & FPGA design with the end user in mind, allowing control and manipulation of functionality at user level in the field as and when needed.

Features

  • Solutions for vehicles with up to 21 crew members and 6 combat radios
  • Fully upgradeable and easily programmable via a standard laptop with no down time required
  • Operate with any encrypted peripherals and signals with no manufacturer input required
  • Fully analogue and digital alarms capable
  • Suitable for heeled and lighter tracked armoured, and patrol vehicles
  • System also supports heads up operation via the VITAVIC 409 personal extension unit

Data and communication features

  • VITAVIC 400 System for two crew and two combat radios consists only a single Central Communication Unit (CCU)
  • VITAVIC 401 CCU has an intuitive, integrated Built-In-Test (BIT) plus a dedicated field workshops test unit(VV4545) if required
  • Dismounted personnel may be remotely connected to intercom and combat radio via a short range soldier radio or field telephone interface
  • Data is transmitted at the combat radio defined rate of 64kb/s
  • All units can be edged with soft rubber for additional safety on the move.
  • Optional digital communication function may be used to either record or generate voice traffic messages – in the local language
  • VITAVIC 400 also has a standard rebroadcast capability for two different combat radios and an expanded capability that allows any combination of up to six different radios to be rebroadcast
