Q-MAC 50 watt VHF military tactical base station package is ideal for both fixed and field base station applications.
The system includes the Q-MAC VDS-90M docking station, allowing jerk and run dismounted use of the VHF-90M transceiver. The docking station allows a standard VHF-90M transceiver to be installed in a base station application. The docking station design enables quick jerk and run operation when the VHF-90M transceiver needs to be used in dismounted configuration.
The primary function of the VDS-90M is to provide power to the VHF-90M transceiver and to provide an interface to accessories typically found in military base station configurations, including power sources, antennas, data terminals, modems and combat radio selector systems for multi-net and multi-band communications requirements.
Advanced functionality includes the ability to remote control the VHF-90M up to 5km via a two-wire interface using either a second VHF-90M transceiver with docking station or DTMF tones from a tactical telephone exchange.
Q-MAC's VHF-90M base station also includes a booster amplifier and discone VHF antenna provide extended coverage. The VHF-50M Amplifier is used as an accessory with the VDS-90M docking station to boost the transceiver output power to 50 watts. The VHF-50M significantly increases the communication range and link reliability between radios when terrain disrupts the normal line of sight path. Under direct control of the VHF-90M, the VHF-50M is fully compatible with frequency hopping.
The VHF-50M Amplifier can be switched to bypass mode, enabling the transceiver to transmit directly to an external antenna. The amplifier includes interfaces to attach external accessories such as intercom harness systems, power sources, antennas, data terminals, modems and combat radio selector systems for multi-net and multi-band communications requirements.
When combined with Q-MAC's Secure Modes option, the VHF-90M base station package is capable of Frequency Hopping, Encryption and Free Channel Search (FCS), providing tactical users with secure, jam-resistant VHF communications to a military standard.
