RT-9000E SOFTWARE-DEFINED HF SSB/ISB RADIO SUNAIR

Description

The Sunair RT-9000E is a proven solution in communications applications that require durable, reliable and versatile equipment.
This next-generation transceiver operates continuously (100% duty cycle) with 125 W PEP and average output on AME, NB-FM, USB,
LSB, ISB, CW, Data or MELPe digital voice modes.
The RT-9000E uses software-defined digital signal processing (DSP) technology, which supports the latest developments in high-speed
waveform processing. This technology improves the functionality of the CPU as well as the Synthesizer, Audio and IF stages. The radio offers Automatic Link Establishment (ALE) as an internal option in accordance with MIL-STD-188-141 A/B/C, FS1045A and S4538 as well as remote control and programming via Ethernet or serial port.
A serial port slot on the front panel allows for changes to the unit’s configuration.
With a factory-installed option, the Sunair RT-9000E complies with MIL-STD-188-203-1A and STANAG 5511/5522 (TADIL-A/Link 11
and NILE/Link 22) for data link operation. The RT-9000E is also compatible with MIL-STD-188-110 A/B/C and modem STANAG HF waveforms. The radio can accommodate Type 1 encryption such as ANDVT, KY-99, KG-84() and KG-40 as well as commercial privacy devices or optional internal MELPe F/W digital voice with
Encryption functions DES 56, AES 128 & AES 256. The RT-9000E
Its design allows it to accept single or split-site operation as a transmitter-only or receiver-only (T-9000E or R-9000E). The sound
The interface supports analog or VoIP connections.

The built-in test (BITE) feature provides feedback at the lowest level
replaceable unit (LRU) level that provides English messages to
display and internal LED indicators. RT-9000E can work
from alternating and direct voltage sources, while its internal power supply
minimizes unwanted RFI and EMC effects.
The radio’s intuitive modular design allows for easy maintenance,
expansion and upgrading throughout the life cycle of the equipment
minimal expenditure. Thousands of these radios are in daily service as
integral elements of critical strategic communication solutions
