New Products

Mobile Secure Link
Designed with military customers in mind, this family of secure link devices offers enhanced connectivity and short deployment times. The Scotty Mobile Secure Link (MSL) is pre-wired for immediate use and contains a plug-and-play encryption bay for either a KIV-7HS or an OMNIxi, ADTRAN 2 x 64 integrated services digital network terminal adapter. The MSL also features an I-Split for use with two Inmarsat global area network terminals operating at 64 kilobits per second and 128 kilobits per second. For more information, visit www.scottygroup.com.


Rugged Laptops
Three new rugged laptop computers designed for military applications are now available. The MIL-Book 1000 is a wireless-capable laptop featuring an expansion bay for peripheral component interconnect cards or government-supplied classified electronics. The MIL-Book 100 is a lightweight wireless-ready laptop equipped with the latest Intel Pentium microprocessors. It can be expanded with a docking station to access a compact disk read-only memory/digital video disk drive, a floppy drive and additional input/output ports. The MIL-Book 10 is a tablet computer featuring a touch screen and advanced Intel Pentium microprocessors. The sunlight readable display can be operated with a gloved hand. A rugged wireless keyboard also is available. For more information, visit www.tag.com.

Camera Control Software
This automated slow motion analysis control software package is designed for use with high-speed, computer-based video cameras. The Motion Tools software features camera control and image replay software with automatic single-point tracking and a manual tracking function that can capture one to four points per frame. The program also has an automatic download module that triggers the system to save a predetermined number of frames to any internal or external hard drive. Additional features include global positioning satellite system and inter-range instrumentation group timing modules for analyzing and synchronizing millisecond time codes from high-speed cameras recording from different locations. For more information, visit www.photron.com.

Wireless Modems
Capable of transmitting data up to 20 miles line-of-sight, these 1-watt, 900-megahertz wireless modems are designed for use in mobile, temporary and permanent installations. The ConnexLink transceivers can transmit data at rates up to 115.2 kilobits per second and can be set up in point-to-point or multipoint configurations. Applications include remote data collection, communicating with portable wireless devices and providing information uploads for commercial equipment such as information kiosks and automated teller machines. For more information, visit www.aerocomm.com.

Satellite Navigation Software
This software package is designed as a comprehensive analysis tool for users of satellite navigation systems. The Navigation Tool Kit predicts the performance of navigation equipment by analyzing and modeling situations that may cause errors. These factors include hardware variations, atmospheric distortions, radio frequency interference and satellite orbital errors. For more information, visit www.agi.com/navigation.

High-Speed Digitizers
These 3U single-slot peripheral component interconnect extensions for instrumentation (PXI ) digitizers are designed for high-speed waveform recording in applications such as telecommunications, lidar, radar, semiconductors and ultrasonic systems. Capable of operating in any PXI and CompactPCI chassis, the DC140 and DC135 digitizers operate at 1 gigahertz and 500 megahertz, respectively. The devices offer a channel multiplexing capability that allows users to select between single- and dual-channel data acquisition modes, doubling the available sampling rates and acquisition memory. For more information, visit www.acqiris.com/products/digitizers/index.jsp.


License-Free Wireless Broadband Network
Designed for use in remote work environments, this equipment allows users to set up mobile, license-free wireless broadband data networks. Based on a cellular architecture, each cell of the Safari Network SR-7120 and SR-7100 covers a radius of 15 miles. The ruggedized and watertight equipment can be quickly set up, configured and managed by nontechnical personnel. For more information, visit www.navcomtech.com/products/sr7100.cfm.
