Deployable Workstations

Secure Communication Systems’ line of rugged Deployable Workstations, servers, mass storage and power conditioning systems are designed to provide the warfighter with the latest state-of-the-art commercial computing solutions in configurations suitable for use in the operational theater. This powerful package brings valuable processing power to anywhere on the planet.

Each Deployable Workstation is configurable with Windows, UNIX, or Linux operating systems capable of hosting most of the existing or projected applications in Mission Planning and C4I. Our deployable systems configuration consists of a rackmounted 1U, 2U, 3U, and 4U Rugged Computer Chassis housed in a 6U transit case.

The Deployable Workstation package is custom configured to a customer's specific application to provide the optimum balance of power and functionality. The transit case also houses a 19” LCD Monitor, keyboard and mouse. Multi-terabyte redundant storage and backup systems are also available to secure your data while in the field.

The use of COTS subassemblies allows us to field new technologies faster to the end user while providing a degree of ruggedization which makes them truly usable in the operational scenario. Each unit is tailor-made to accept the most power components without sacrificing upgradability of COTS equipment.
