Automation Innovation’s solution provides a low-cost, flexible solution to establishing strategic or tactical deployed communications that are highly reliable, high-bandwidth, low-latency, and cost-effective and which can rapidly adapt to changing operational needs whether at fixed or remote/austere locations.
provides wireless network infrastructure in Areas of Operation (AOs) where fiber-optic cabling, satellite, or other hardwired media is not viable due to distance, lack of access, band-width limitations, latency, or high cost.
- Collaboration of MLoS and Regional Command Network Operations and Security Center (NOSC) teams on network design and smooth integration
- Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing costs in theater reconfigured for theater-wide consistency (primary link, lowest cost)
- MLoS traffic Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) values marked (currently AF-23) to prevent transmission across satellite networks
- Theater data priorities: Secure (SIPR/CX-I) VoIP, NIPR VoIP, MLoS, = common grouping of equipment
- For MLoS links – each end considered separate “system”
- Equipment supporting the MLoS link considered part of “system” (i.e., Blue Sky Mast)
- Network Equipment – Standard IP network equipment 100/1000 Mbps connection
- Can use customer provided network or set up dedicated network
- Additional network traffic available to use connection
