communications - digital voice and data switch (SwitchplusIP)

C4i's core product is the fault tolerant, high availability SwitchplusIP® end-to-end IP voice and data communications system.

All of the C4i SwitchplusIP® communication systems are built from the same advanced modular small footprint building blocks, repackaged and qualified to suit the required environments. This allows systems to be scaled from backpack or vehicle portable up to the largest national C4 systems merely through the addition of the same common modules.

All C4i building blocks use open standards such as SIP and RTP which can be streamed to any compatible device via a Local Area Network (LAN). The units also support dual redundancy of key modules and LAN interfaces ensuring that mission critical audio always gets through to its destination.

Each SwitchplusIP® is used in military applications such as:

  • Deployable/fixed secure/non-secure A-G-A and G-G communications
  • Inter-site radar and data routing
  • Remote radio control
  • Deployable and fixed Red/Black communications
  • Secure conferencing
  • Naval shipboard communications
  • Emergency service communications, alarm monitoring and response coordination
  • Communications simulation
