DIGITAL AND ANALOGUE UNDERWATER COMMUNICATION
The UT 3000 2G is the latest version of underwater communication systems designed and built by ELAC SONAR. It combines analogue and digital underwater communication according to the latest STANAG specifications in one compact 19” unit.
The UT 3000 2G is compatible in form, fit and function with the first generation of UT 3000 systems and provides enhanced flexibility, improved functionality and easier operational handling due to modern and intuitive touchscreen operation and simple menubased control.
Installed on numerous submarines and surface ships worldwide the UT 3000 2G is designed, built and certified to meet all relevant military specifications. This ensures safe and reliable communication even under harsh conditions. A robust digital underwater communication is the basis for an infinite number of new applications for submarines at speed and depth. The implementation of state of the art digital communication standards like JANUS (STANAG 4748) and IFS (STANAG 1481) will play an important role for safety at sea in the future.
The large touch-sensitive display provides unbeaten intuitive operation and a variety of features such as telephony, telegraphy, digital data transmission and reception, noise measurement, distance measurement and emergency mode. The online and offline built-in test (BITE) supports the system’s uninterrupted availability. Up to four transducer groups are supported for directional or omni-directional transmission within the widest frequency range available on the market. On surface ships, an optional outboard transducer enables communication even under adverse conditions.
