Rohde&Schwarz MR3000H User Guide

Advanced HF/VHF Tactical Radio R&S MR3000H

The R&S MR3000H belongs to a new fam­ily of high-performance digital radios cov­ering the HF and VHF/FM band in a single
unit. Thanks to different high-speed data
modes and protocols as well as different
antijam modes for HF and VHF/FM, it per­fectly integrates into tactical communica­tion networks.

The radio is software-configurable and
reprogrammable including pre planned
product improvement (P³I).

All members of the R&S M3TR family are
based on one mechanical platform, with
a common logistic concept and one man
machine interface (MMI).

Features

◆ Multiband capability (1.5 MHz to

512 MHz with external devices)

◆ Multiwaveform capability

◆ High data rate up to 64 kbit/s for data

and video

◆ Software-configurable and upgrade-

able (P³I)

◆ Selective links in one net

◆ Low volume/weight

◆ Power saving mode

◆ Integrated GPS and position report

◆ Removable front panel for flexible use

and integration

◆ User-friendly MMI
