Rohde & Schwarz's compact R&S MR3000P tactical handheld radio enables secure radio communications in any terrain
(Product News, 26 Feb 2007)
Rohde & Schwarz has expanded its R&S M3TR family of tactical radios by adding a small and light handheld radio. Despite its compact size, the R&S MR3000P has all the features required of a tactical radio by offering reliable connections, even in topographically difficult terrain, and by allowing flexible integration into tactical networks. The R&S MR3000P covers a frequency range from 25MHz to 144MHz.
Due to its jam-resistant digital waveform, the R&S MR3000P provides high-quality connections. Moreover, its transmit power of up to 5W allows high ranges, even in difficult terrain. Since the handheld radio is interoperable with other radios of the R&S M3TR family, it can be easily integrated into tactical networks with R&S M3TR fixed and vehicle installations. Its compact design and low weight are advantageous for infantry forces. The expanded frequency range of the handheld radio covers not only tactical VHF but also parts of the HF and VHF aeronautical radio range, enabling plain ground-to-air communications, for example, and thus eliminating the need for additional radios.
For tactical applications, an integrated crypto module of the highest security level provides protection for confidential messages. For military users, the tap-proof transmission of messages is indispensable.
