A breakthrough product for tactical field deployed and emergency communications developed in collaboration with the Australian Army and a small Melbourne company Defence Communications Industry. RASIGS pioneered and proven the products’ in several high profile operations including East Timor, Bougainville and Afghanistan.

Used primarily to extend Command and Control in tactical field deployed LANs, these systems effectively replace an expensive and fragile infrastructure – while still providing features such as integrated voice telephony and video.

DCI/ADF collaboration was rewarded in June 2002 with the win of a prestigious US Golden Link award for “most innovative design in collaboration between government and private industry – assisting in the war against terrorism”.

P3 are widely deployed accross Australia in one of the world’s most demanding terrain and are setting a new standard in Tactical (field deployed) LANs.
