SOLO8 Software Defined Radio (Robust)
1.3.1
Description
The SOLO8 Software Defined Radio is an ultra-miniature COFDM digital video transceiver from Domo
Tactical Communications (DTC), designed specifically for Point of View (PoV), body worn and concealment
applications. Dependent on the applications loaded the platform can operate as a Transmitter, Receiver,
Dual Encoder, Standard IP Mesh and MIMO IP Mesh. Further information on software capability can found in
the SDRAPP datasheets.
SOLO8 SDR Robust provides a passively cooled IP66 rated enclosure ideal for outdoor, or body worn
applications.
The UHF version is larger than the standard SOL8SDR-R due to the lower frequency of operation (320-
470MHz). Please see the SOL8SDR UHF Operation Guidelines publication for important application notes.
