The modular system will combine Motorola Solutions’ deployable Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) infrastructure and Nokia’s 5G AirScale portfolio.
Housed in rugged, deployable containers, it can be operational in under 30 minutes.
Motorola Solutions’ Silvus MANET technology provides the backhaul to extend connectivity across diverse operational environments and extensive geographical areas.
“Secure, resilient and real-time connectivity is crucial for modern military operations,” said Fergus Mayne, UK and Ireland Country Manager, Motorola Solutions.
“With Nokia, we’re providing defence forces with powerful, next-generation communications to help bring critical information to the front lines,” continued Mayne.
“This innovative communications solution builds on our global footprint in mission-critical land mobile radio and previous containerised network solutions to address the dynamic and evolving needs of modern defence operations.”
“Empowering military operations”
“Our collaboration with Motorola Solutions to develop a compact, modular solution for reliable mission-critical communications underscores the unmatched flexibility of our private 4G and 5G solutions, designed to meet the evolving needs of defence,” commented Giuseppe Targia, Head of Space and Defence, Nokia.
“Our industry-leading technology enables secure, high-speed data, voice and video connectivity, empowering military operations in the most demanding environments.”
