More Product Information
The VS1410 is a video & data recorder/server packaged in a rugged compact chassis (3.75” x 5.75” x 7.36” / 6.4 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 acquiring, processing, storing, exploiting, and disseminating field and mission data.
These units are suitable for both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles. They undergo rigorous validation and formal qualification testing, adhering to standard test methods such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.
eZ Processing is the solution for telemetry data processing, analysis and display (real time or playback). It allows the capture of the data either from a PCM signal or directly through data sent on Ethernet (IRIG 106 Chapter 10) by the receiver.
It performs the frame synchronization, Engineering Unit conversion, data display and storage, as well as data subset dissemination to dedicated analysis tools. It can accommodate multiple display stations, each having selectable parameters and displays. When used in a system with Safran Defense & Space, Inc. (formerly Safran Data Systems, Inc.) data acquisition units like the XMA or MDR, the software parameter database is automatically updated by eZ configuration software, reducing the set-up time and preventing all errors.
The ES9910 Ethernet switch/router, an advanced solution that offers seamlessly integrated, highly flexible, and fully managed LAN/VLAN connectivity for mission-critical systems.
This versatile technology serves onboard operations for both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles, empowering them with top-notch networking capabilities.
The ENERTEC™ mission data processing and distribution units offer cost-effective, dependable solutions for acquiring, processing, storing, utilizing, and distributing field and mission data.
These units undergo rigorous validation and formal qualification testing, adhering to standard test methods such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810 to ensure their reliability and performance.
The PPS®X00 plasma thruster (Hall effect) takes benefit of Safran’s long experience with electric propulsion to propose a very efficient product. PPS®X00 was designed to address the specific requirements inherent in the “New Space” market environment. With a lifespan exceeding 5,000 hours and very high specific impulse, the PPS®X00 is an extremely versatile thruster, making it ideal for all types of applications in its core market: low Earth orbit (LEO).
Our patented miniaturized L/S/C Tri-Band Feed delivers top-notch performance and unmatched flexibility.
Equipped with a common L/S/C radiating front end, it’s complemented by a modular set of active RF modules, enabling simultaneous reception and tracking across various frequency bands. Its compact, lightweight design allows it to be mounted on any dishes ranging from 6 to 24 feet.
Available in single, dual, or tri-band configurations, this feed offers the best value for customers looking to meet current requirements while staying future-ready.
It’s also field-upgradable to add any missing bands with straightforward RF module additions, ensuring scalability while keeping costs in check.
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.
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.
