Weighing less than 600g, the RF-7800S body-worn SRPs offer soldiers secure and reliable voice and wideband data communications in theatre and is optimised for maximum performance across highly variable environments.

The radios feature a duplex voice capability that allows several soldiers to talk simultaneously, advanced waveform with the 350MHz to 450MHz frequency band and a range of more than 2km even in dense urban areas.

The radio offers high-speed USB connectivity to other C4 devices, integrated Global Positioning System (GPS) and simultaneous wideband voice and data.

The RF-7800W HCLOS radio provides quick-to-deploy, point-to-point or point-to-multipoint wireless IP infrastructure, enabling high-bandwidth data communication between mobile or fixed operations centres.

HCLOS radio enables bandwidth-intensive applications including group situational awareness, real-time streaming video, voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) and video conferencing.
