TR2400HF SSB Transceiver

The TR2400 forms part of SSG’s Tactical HF communication product range which was designed to meet the operational requirements of the modern digital battlefield.

The TR2400 environmental and electromagnetic compliance is based on MIL-STD-810E and MIL-STD-461D respectively.

The TR2400 uses Micro/DSP technology that allows configuration flexibility and an upgrade path.

The TR2400 provides the user with voice and data communications for manpack applications as well as base station and vehicle installations.

A unique feature of this transceiver is that the output power is typically 25W when powered from the supplied manportable battery and typically 100W when powered from a 26V vehicle battery.

The TR2400 with its external co-location filter provides the user with the capability to operate multiple transceivers in a co-located environment.
