Targeted particularly for intelligence community and defense uses, but applicable in any scenario that requires rapid, error-free transfer of exceptionally large amounts of high value data, SpectralFox is a unique configuration of antennas, Radio Frequency (RF) devices and related equipment anchored by RT Logic's latest high data rate modem and data protection algorithms. SpectralFox has passed data at more than 700Mbps in the field, the equivalent of allowing one-way transmission of a terabyte of error-free data in less than four hours. This represents more than a tripling of the effective channel capacity beyond other solutions when using the same satellite system.
SpectralFox dramatically reduces the time needed to transfer Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) Big Data files while at the same time reducing the associated manpower and logistics. Today, for example, the amount of data coming from UAVs and other sensors in remote locations can be so large that analysts may not receive and process the information until long after its peak value. In some cases, the sheer size of the files forces field units to ship them by plane or other expensive physical transport method rather than digitally. SpectralFox particularly addresses these ISR scenarios where one-way, error-free delivery of Big Data is required.
"SpectralFox addresses the transport side of the Big Data challenge," said Brian Connell, RT Logic's Product Manager for SpectralFox, "especially when rigorous security is required for highly sensitive data in transit, such as raw ISR data from the field. SpectralFox is highly scalable for a range of physical environments, from the laboratory to the most difficult field conditions."
