Tactical communications has experienced a flood of new technologies yielding faster, more intelligent networks. Even with this investment, new platforms are expected to bridge legacy assets into the network. It is important to choose a tactical fiber optic modem that can support newer protocols and still retain interoperability with TRI-TAC assets. DNE's CV MCU2+ supports Ethernet media conversion, multiplexing, and TRI-TAC fiber and CDI modem functions in a 1RU chassis.
