MARCOM® – integrated communications system
The Marcom® is the foundation of the Navy’s newest digital integrated voice / data switching system for affordable command and control equipment supporting communications and radio room automation.
The MarCom® uses the latest COTS digital technology and open systems standards to offer the command and control user a low cost, user friendly, solution to the complex voice, video and data communications needs of present and future joint / allied missions. Built in reliability, rugged construction, and fail-safe circuits ensure your call and messages will go through.
The MarCom® requires just a single terminal for each operator thereby reducing shipbuilder costs, weight and space while increasing operator efficiency well beyond today’s legacy stovepipes. Our Keyswitch Integrated Terminal Equipment (KITE) is currently selected for the US Navy’s Aegis Destroyers, USS SAN ANTONIO LPD 17 class of Amphibious ships, the US Coast Guard’s Deepwater cutter and boats, and several international customers.
The Marcom® has the flexibility to support integration with both legacy and modern communication systems like automated radio rooms based on network radios like JTRS. Applications include: shipboard / mobile interior and exterior communications; radio baseband circuit switching; air traffic control; secure switching; and command and control centers.
