Evenlode III
Upgradable Lightweight Air Platform System
- Custom configured for specific end-user requirements.
- Lightweight envelope.
- Designed for OEM’s, 3rd party integrators and end-users.
Product Description
Evenlode III Data Terminal. Evenlode III has the data exchange capability of Evenlode II. In addition, air and ground equipment may be deployed to extend the full range of Internet Protocol (IP) services to the air platform; these include internet in the air, remote sensor control from the ground, remote access to databases, augmented reality and shared white-boarding applications. The link between a pair of Evenlode III terminals behaves, in networking terms, as an Ethernet cable with a maximum data rate defined by the radio link parameters.
Evenlode III System adds the following:
- The Evenlode Transceiver module.
- 2 x Aircraft uplink antennas.
- 1 x Transmit Antenna
- 2 x Low Noise Block downconverters (LNB) for diversity reception and RF output Receive Filter.
- Suitable ground transceiver with an antenna system specific to operational requirements.
- Upgrade to convert ground receiver rack to transceiver rack including mast mounted transmit amplifier and antenna.
- IP transmission license
