Our company delivers the most powerful tactical networking technology ever created. Proven on the target for over a decade, Wave Relay® is a Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) connecting Warfighters to manned and unmanned ground, sea, and air platforms. In an operational environment of ever-decreasing bandwidth, the dynamic and scalable Wave Relay® MANET enables the most efficient flow of data through the RF spectrum, bar none. In a near-peer conflict, network superiority is paramount. Point-to-point data transport will not suffice in Multi-Domain Operations of the contemporary era. It must be fast, high in throughput, reliable, secure, and it must be able to scale up. No compromise. Reduce the size, weight, power, and cost. Reduce the cognitive burden and the number of things. The Warfighter does not need more ‘stuff’. The Warfighter needs capabilities. Our goal is to empower the Warfighter with this technology. Our goal is our national security. Show less
