and monitors vehicle system status, end-user controls and end-user indicators. The device
provides power to all connected units, independent switching of 16 voice streams, routing
of 16 data channels and control of four radio transceivers. A “lite” version for voice-only
applications is also available. Connection ports include:
• Four radio transceiver voice ports
• Four general-purpose serial ports
• 10 peripheral connections to crew member stations/remote links
• Ethernet port supporting TCP/IP
• Standard military field wire connectivity out to 1200 meters

The Keypad Display Unit displays messages and commands on its LCD screen, but combines
voice station functionality with data terminal capabilities. An incorporated keypad allows
input of numeric information and control codes, which are processed by the Central Unit and
redirected to other networked intercom devices. The unit provides crew members with full
control of intercom assets while on the move for maximum in-field flexibility. Configuration
options include the choice of a second headset connector or data connection to support PCs or
other network devices.
