More Product Information

The SPARTE 500 series, commonly mounted with a 4.4 reflector, is a top-of-the-line dual-axis antenna that spans dish sizes from 15 to 18 feet. This field-proven telemetry tracking antenna has been trusted by customers for their most mission-critical applications.
With a widespread presence on test ranges around the world, the SPARTE 500 series antennas excel in meeting the rigorous demands of various flight test scenarios, whether it’s for long-range aircraft, missiles or launch vehicles tests.
These antennas offer a streamlined design, ensuring easy operation and making them a perfect fit for any ground test range, working hand in hand with smaller range trackers.

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.

With its compact and rugged design, CMA is a perfect fit for data acquisitions in challenging environments and tight spaces.
CMA boasts the smallest size per channel, providing versatile acquisition modules to customize instrumentation for specific missile or New Space use cases. These acquisition modules enable software configuration in the field for each channel type.
Offering on-board processing, recording, hardware customization, GPS localization, and a built-in transmitter, CMA allows for an all-in-one-box solution.
CMA delivers advanced signal and acquisition conditioning, bus monitoring, recording, and transmission, all while reducing integration time, cost, and risk.

The CORTEX NuRoN Software Modem is the all-in-one satellite support solution, covering every step from check-out to in-orbit operations.
With NuRoN, you have the freedom to tailor your architecture to your exact needs, even allowing virtualization and centralized signal processing.
Operating on standard x86 servers, NuRoN is fully compatible with both private and public cloud setups, offering unprecedented flexibility and scalability as your company expands.
Built on the rock-solid foundation of the industry-standard CORTEX legacy, NuRoN is the hassle-free, secure, and easily deployable software modem for all your Command & Control needs.

The CORTEX RTR-X1 (formerly RX-1) is a compact, dual-channel telemetry receiver with a pre-D combiner, designed to span all IRIG frequency bands and conform to IRIG-specified modulations.
This off-the-shelf (COTS) product leverages the rock-solid CORTEX RTR technology components, inheriting their renowned RF performance and signal processing prowess.
The RX-1 excels in test range scenarios, offering cutting-edge features to ensure maximum data accessibility. Trust the RX-1 for top-tier telemetry reception in challenging conditions.

The SPARTE e100 is a hybrid antenna addressing the telemetry applications in S-Band, including hypersonic test articles.
The antenna is a combination of an Electronic Beam Steering supporting any elevation from -5° up to +95° and a single-axis mechanical rotation of the patch panel providing unlimited azimuth. The patch panel’s size enables the SPARTE e100 to achieve telemetry reception performance comparable to that of a 1.2m diameter dual-axis antenna.
This is achieved with a significantly simpler mechanical design, ensuring easier maintenance throughout the antenna’s operational lifespan.
The SPARTE e100’s rapid tracking capabilities, reaching speeds of up to 60°/s in azimuth and virtually infinite in elevation, make it an ideal “lock-on” antenna.

The RMM Manager utility software offers convenient, user-friendly pre-mission or post-mission access to SC1450-series Removable Memory Modules (RMM) for use with VS-Series video & data recorder/server, in PC/Windows® environment.

The CORTEX RSR-RF (-40 or -200) stands as a digital recorder that plays a vital role in capturing and reproducing the RF analog signal received by the antenna before any processing occurs.
It’s an essential component in a Telemetry Station, ensuring the utmost availability of crucial data, particularly in cases where on-board recording is not feasible.
Data collected in-flight offers extensive post-processing flexibility. You can fine-tune various settings in the receiver, the bit synchronizer, and the decommutator to maximize the extraction of data, a feat achievable only with RF recording. Furthermore, it serves as an invaluable tool for test range qualification ahead of test flights.

Safran Ground Station is a turnkey ground segment solution with all required equipment and ground tools to proceed with removable media preparation and post-mission data retrieval and replay.
