R&S®XV3088 VHF Transceiver
High-performance multirole combat radio
Brief description
The VHF Transceiver R&S XV3088 is a high-performance pouch radio that can be instantly redeployed as a long-duration patrol backpack and has logistic, tactical and cost advantages.
The heart of the new integrated communication system is the high-performance lightweight VHF Transceiver R&S XV3088 that offers a solution to all aspects of tactical communication. Up to 2320 channels (9 programmable), full data facility and an unparalleled simplicity of operation demonstrate state-of-the-art technology. Its multirole characteristics are further enhanced by a carefully designed range of ancillaries producing an exceedingly cost-effective and logistically desirable system.
Mobile operation
The R&S XV3088 is upgraded to a complete vehicle communication system by means of Vehicle Mounting Frame R&S KS3088 and Power Amplifier R&S VV3088M/R&S VV3088V with output power of 25 W or 50 W. The complete communication system is envisaged to be built into practically any military vehicle.
Secure transmission
The built-in voice scrambler provides digital voice encryption by sampling with 32-bit code, scrambling and transmission via the radio channel. The 10000 possible code combinations are entered by means of a fill gun.
Selective calling of up to 99 subscribers
Selective dialling to desired subscriber and fast transmission of message by 3-digit numerical code
Three power stages
High, moderate and low (high only available with 25/50 W RF amplifier).
Remote Control and Rebroadcast Unit R&S GB3088 allows remote control of R&S XV3088, i.e. traffic monitoring, ringing and transmitter keying from a field telephone using two-wire cable
Two multifunction connectors
Providing both secure and fast data transmission with 2400 bit/s as well as remotecontrol capabilities and an audio interface, the transceivers can be extended with accessories, such as handset, headset etc.
Simplified operation
Clearly arranged keypad for point and shoot operation and clear override mode.
Whisper mode
Increased microphone sensivity for discreet operation in silent environment.
Compact size
One of the smallest and lightest manpack radios at a size of just 83 mm × 205 mm × 252 mm with battery pack attached. The rugged package is submersible and withstands harshest environmental and EMC conditions.
Antennas
The range of antennas available includes a low-profile antenna that allows discreet operation, a 1.5 m whip antenna to increase range as well as long-wire antennas and antennas for mobile use. In case of considerable mismatch, e.g. antenna damage, the TX LED signals the error by flashing in red.
