Gaining a Decisive Advantage with a Family of Systems

Modern conflicts are decided by the speed and accuracy of data, empowering commanders’ strategic and tactical decisions. During a mission, risks are dramatically increased every second a decision is delayed, resulting in potential loss of life or assets. Today, the U.S. and allied forces focus on advanced warfighting concepts such as Joint All-Domain Command and Control, an initiative emphasizing secure, fast sharing of sensor feeds and data across a broad multi-domain battlespace. Geographically dispersed sensors collect and send vast amounts of data. The volume of data is only expected to increase. Every warfighter is a platform for information which then distributes the data across the battlespace for conversion into actionable intelligence that can be used to make informed mission-critical decisions and execute plans at the speed of conflict. Getting the correct information to the right place at the needed time and scale dramatically shortens decision cycles and kinetic/non-kinetic effect chains. This can be the difference between mission success or mission failure.

Connecting and processing all this data securely throughout operational areas of the mission are an enormous challenge. Each stakeholder within the command structure has specific requirements, and the ability to integrate across multiple domains is essential for fast and accurate decision-making. No standalone product can deliver the data and connectivity needs of each user and decision-maker across multiple domains.

Mission-Engineered – About Listening to The Customer

Every module in the DTECH Family of Systems (FoS) starts with a user saying: “I wish I had a way to do this out here.” For example, because of our customer collaboration, users do not have to worry about how they can power all their Power Over Ethernet (POE) devices, how to sanitize video feeds for transfer to coalition partners (cross domain), how to mitigate sudden power instability events, or how to deploy a local datacenter node out of the back of an aircraft. DTECH FoS users trust to bring their use cases to us, because they know that we take their mission seriously, and we will incorporate mission needs into our FoS without impacting the size, weight, and power characteristics of their current solution. No matter where or how a user operates, they can have confidence that their DTECH stacks will be up to the challenge today and tomorrow.

Mission-Forward – About Innovative Technology Integrations

Innovative technologies are making a meaningful difference in the capacity and survivability of our warfighters. Radio over IP (RoIP), remote Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) operations, and zero-trust cybersecurity are all examples of high-speed data technologies working together to keep front-line personnel out of harm’s way and focused on their objectives. Unfortunately, stove pipe approaches often solve only a small piece of the solution puzzle, leaving end users unsupported or without a resilient, survivable way to properly deploy a capability. A FoS approach to deploying these solutions, such as Cubic DTECH Mission Solutions’ M3-SE & M3X devices, accelerates deployment and fielding of battlespace decision-making technology like GPU-powered artificial intelligence video analysis. The resulting data is secured and disseminated throughout operational areas and echelons for a decisive advantage. Mounting, power, battery backup questions and cabling challenges are all solved at the module level so that users can focus less time on setup and more on the mission.

Mission-Proven – Long Fielding History, Trusted Equipment

When DTECH talks about equipment being mission-proven, we are not just meeting requirements and spec sheets. To us, being mission-proven comes from a history of service and readiness and enthusiastic feedback from our users that their communications solution was fully operational when they needed it. While other vendors were designing imitations, the DTECH FoS equipment was already tried, true, and trusted by the men and women who know what it means to demand excellence from equipment. Well over 100,000 DTECH devices have been fielded over two decades, many of which still perform their functions today. We are proud of our history of innovation and our record of reliability. Everything we do is focused on continuing to be the baseband compute and networking solution of choice for the U.S. and partner nations.

In conclusion, DTECH accelerates joint all-domain battlespace decision-making, enabling data to be connected, secured, and analyzed throughout the mission chain for a decisive advantage. Our systems are mission-engineered for the edge with computing and networking capabilities, mission-proven through reliable equipment that can survive challenging environments, and mission-forward by continually innovating for the next mission.
