RapidM Company - HF modem maker for STANAG 4538, STANAG 4539, STANAG 4285, MIL-STD-188-110B, MIL-STD-188-110A, STANAG 5066, MIL-STD-188-141B, MIL-STD-188-141A, 2G ALE, 3G ALE.

The TC4 is a high-performance LF, HF & V/UHF modem and ALE Controller module. The module is suitable for integration into LF, HF & V/UHF radios. The TC4 is recommended for new designs. The maximum data rate is 9600 bps full duplex over a standard 3 kHz voice channel and 19200 bps in 2-ISB.

For V/UHF operation the maximum data rate is 96000 bps in a 25 kHz audio channel.

The operation of the TC4 is determined by the selection of one of the following software packs:

• M1:	LF & HF Modem (incl. ISB, up to 19200 bps)
• M2:	HF Modem (SSB, up to 9600 bps)
• M3:	HF Modem (SSB, broadcast, up to 2400 bps)
• M4:	HF Modem (SSB, S4539, up to 9600 bps)
• V1:	V/UHF Modem (up to 96000 bps)

• 2G ALE Controller Software Option

• STANAG 4538 (3G ALE) Modem Option
