The FDF helps address the data transfer requirements of mobile troops by using the Tough Comnode devices such as VoIP phones, P routers and SHDSL repeaters.
Bittium Tactical Power Pack consists of dual 70Wh, 6.7Ah batteries and an adapter that attaches the batteries together. This will allow the Tactical Power Pack to be used as a battery charger.
In addition, each of the two batteries in the pack can be changed rapidly one after the other while ensuring uninterrupted power supply to the charging device.
Delivery of the Tactical Power Packs will take place during the first half of next year.
