2090 Features

>> Lightweight Using the latest lightweight alloys the 2090 weighs 5.2 kg including its 10 Ah, quick change, Lithium Ion battery cartridge. The 2090's small physical size makes it comfortable to operate and wear when deployed in its optional backpack.

>> Outstanding voice quality The standard DSP noise reduction system reduces external channel noise, the effects of interference and enhances audio signals to provide easier listening. The level of noise reduction can be easily selected to suit prevailing conditions. (Optional to standard configuration)

>> SMS messaging system 64 character SMS messages, encrypted for security, are directly entered via the 2090 handset keys and can be sent to individual or multiple stations. (Optional to standard configuration)

>> Internal data modems Internal modem PCB's available supporting Clover 2000 or STANAG 5066 or PACTOR III. (Optional to standard configuration)

>> Secure Call Secure Call is an innovative, narrow band voice encrypter that is very simple to use, has no handshaking or sync delays, and provides operators secure point to point, or point to multipoint communications. (Optional to standard configuration)

>> Voice encryption DES 56Enables the 2090 to operate in DES 56 (Data Encryption Standard) mode with fall back analogue FFT scrambler for use on extremely bad HF channels. (Optional to standard configuration)

>> Voice scrambler FFT Enables the 2090 to operate in FFT based voice scramble mode. (Optional to standard configuration)

>> Extended operation time The very low current consumption of the 2090 manpack enables it to operate for over 20 hours on one battery cartridge. The battery contains the charge management system and can be charged when connected to the transceiver or separately with any available source, including solar, hand crank or wind generator. Dry cell emergency packs are available (on special order) to extend mission time, negating the need to carry charging equipment.

>> Automatic antenna tunerWhips and untuned wire antennas are simply deployed using the inbuilt, fully automatic antenna tuner. For overnight or temporary fixed operations various lightweight broadband and tunable antennas are available.

>> User friendly operation Barrett's well known intuitive operator interface ensures that using the 2090 manpack is very simple. Principal key functions are performed using a large six key cluster mounted on the custom handset. The operator is guided by a large 128 x 64 LCD graphics display that is removable from the main unit to wear on webbing in front of the operator.

The handset plugs into the remote display. The display has adjustable back lighting, allowing maintenance of night vision or high levels of luminescence in poor visibility. Network station addresses and telephone numbers are stored in easily accessible address and phone books and as little as two key strokes will initiate a call.

>> Data capability FDT's Using the 2090's flexible auxiliary connector and internal PCB modems, Barrett 2020 email and data systems and many OEM FDT's (Field Data Terminals) are supported.

>> GPS tracking Fitted with the optional GPS module, the 2090 manpack is able to be automatically tracked with the Barrett 977 base tracking system. Individual operators can be located, maintained within certain areas or corridors, be alerted if straying into no-go areas and have facilities to alarm controllers if they are in danger. Tracking signals are digital and encrypted for security.

>> Selective calling systems The 2090 manpack provides international standard four and six digit Selective Call facilities that include Telcall, SMS, GPS position and remote transceiver operational status monitoring, point to point Secure Call and remote transceiver disable capabilities.
