More Product Information

The MDR system is your key to data collection in challenging, real-world airborne flight test scenarios. Its modular design allows it to seamlessly adapt to the full spectrum of test requirements, whether it’s a lightweight task or an extensive mission with diverse signals, environmental challenges, and lengthy recording periods.
A comprehensive range of signal interface modules, custom-tailored for various data sources and bus types, ensures that it’s ready to meet today’s demands and future requirements.

The PPS®5000, produced by Safran Spacecraft Propulsion, is a Hall Effect Thruster purposely designed for “all-electric” satellites. It can operate in high-thrust or high specific impulse mode,and offers an operating lifespan of about 20,000 hours. This means it can handle orbital positioning and station-keeping duties for a wide range of telecom and navigation satellites, as well as exploration spacecraft. The PPS®5000 was fully qualified in 2021.

The RTR-X4 is one of the most advanced digital telemetry receivers on the market with its well-recognized RF performance and signal processing capability.
The 4U chassis-based RTR-X4 can support up to four channels providing flexibility and capability as well as a rich set of features for different frequency bands, modulations, decoders and output formats.
Not only does the CORTEX RTR provide an extensive set of features for different frequency bands, modulations, decoders and output formats, but the user can easily upgrade the equipment in the field to access additional and new features. The RTR-X4 is an excellent fit for flight test ranges, offering full flexibility and easy access to settings through its user-friendly GUI on the embedded 8.4-inch screen.

Our modular data acquisition unit, the XMA-ROTOR, brings cutting-edge module technology to the specialized mechanical housing designed for rotor head instrumentation.
Say goodbye to outdated slip ring technology – the XMA-ROTOR revolutionizes the game by offering a completely wireless and contactless connection between the rotor and the stator.
Power is transmitted through inductive coupling, while data, health monitoring info, configuration data, and synchronization signals are transferred over a bi-directional radio link.

X-LITE (EWC27) has been designed with for small satellites flying in Low Earth Orbit. One of the main challenges is low consumption of radio communication links. X-LITE (EWC27) offers high data rate telemetry and robust X band transmission.

The VS1510 is a video & data recorder/server packaged in a rugged compact chassis (4.92” x 5.75” x 7.28 ” / 9.9 lb), for recording on a Removable Memory Module (RMM).
Recorded data can be replayed in a standard PC/Windows® environment, using specific or COTS mission debrief solutions for post mission analysis.
In addition, typically for ISR applications, data can be replayed while recording on board. The ENERTEC™ mission data processing and distribution units offer cost-effective and dependable solutions for collecting, processing, storing, utilizing, and sharing field and mission data.
These units are designed for both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles. They undergo rigorous validation and formal qualification testing, conforming to established standards such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.

ARES (formerly IRIS) from Safran Defense & Space, Inc. (formerly Safran Data Systems, Inc.) represents the next-gen in transportable antenna systems. Packed in portable cases for easy handling, ARES can be shipped using standard methods and be fully operational in under an hour in the field, standing by to support satellites. Utilizing a reliable pedestal design and a dual-band concentric feed, ARES antenna ensures pinpoint accuracy and top-notch antenna performance. Crafted from standard (LRU) parts, it’s a breeze to maintain and service on-site, guaranteeing maximum uptime for all satellite missions. Combined with the SATCORE combo box (Command/Control modem & high-rate receiver) and the TM MAESTRO Monitoring & Control software, ARES is the all-in-one portable satellite tracking system.

With its small and high ruggedized design, XMA is the best fit for remote data acquisitions in harsh and small space areas.
It is the perfect candidate for network telemetry applications and remote acquisitions, to reduce the wire intrusiveness, and acquire the data closer to the sensors.
XMA also allows data recording, data processing, GPS localization and data transmission. XMA has the smallest size/channel types ratio, and proposes optimized module set for a large number of data type acquisitions, with state-of-the-art accuracy.
A complete set of status and health information of the unit is remotely available for live monitoring and accurate data qualifiers.

The B.SAFE is a crash-survivable flight data recording for board defense aviation aircraft and helicopters.
B.SAFE is designed to capture audio, video, and data on a Crash Survivable Memory stored in a rugged and highly compact chassis. You can easily replay the recorded data in a standard PC/Windows® environment using post-mission analysis software.
