Advanced, short-range line-of-sight digital wireless communication system for small manned and unmanned platforms. With an operational range of up to 70 km, the StarLite-X SR is an advanced line-of-sight (LOS) short-range digital wireless communication system for small manned and unmanned platforms. Supporting several data rates of up to 8Mbps, the system’s next-generation technology ensures smooth SD/HD video and audio or data from the payload to the ground station even in harsh conditions, in the air, at sea or on land.
Lightweight mobility for enhanced operational efficiency. Weighing only 230g (self-cooled), the StarLite-X SR is designed specifically for small platforms tailored to size, weight and power (SWAP): mini-UAVs, loitering Munitions, VTOL applications, handheld transceivers and others.
