Description
The Department of Military Affairs (DMA) is seeking to purchase Axnes, Inc. BST35 Mobile Base Station intercom systems for FSG rotor-wing aircraft. The intercom system is a requirement for pilots and crews to communicate with each other, and this particular system enhances safety, efficiency, and effectiveness by allowing aircrew to communicate wirelessly with SAR or other ground rescuers. The system is proprietary in its internal wireless technology and is specifically designed to be cross-compatible with third-party hardware.
Key features of the system include:
• Secure Waveform & Protocol: Axnes uses a proprietary digital waveform and protocol for communication between the base station and handhelds.
• Audio Technology: Features like NIVOX (Non-Interrupted VOX) and specialized noise/echo cancellation are patented or proprietary to Axnes.
• Data Formats: While it can use the standard NMEA format for GPS data, it also uses an Axnes proprietary format for integration with mission consoles.
The estimated dollar amount for this purchase is $64,000.00.
