VIDEO RENTAL EQUIPMENT:
When you need realtime two-way video conferencing in tough field locations, we recommend renting a
Tandberg Tactical II
(see specs).
It has a built-in video screen and camera so you are ready to conference as soon as you open the
case.
It supports IP-based H.323 using Streaming IP or Standard IP via the Inmarsat BGAN network or over
the terrestrial internet. It also supports ISDN-based H.320 over the Inmarsat BGAN and GAN
networks or over a terrestrial ISDN carrier.
FRAME RATES:
The Tactical MXP supports secure video communication with the highest level of
standards-based embedded encryption (AES). It is also possible to use in-line Type I
encryption equipment
for further security. Other important features are a PC card slot for a wireless
LAN connection and support for IP Quality of Service (QoS).
The 7E Talking Head family includes the TH-1, TH-2, and (coming soon) the TH-4 (H-264 for
ISDN or IP). The TH-1 can be used with 64 or 128 kbps ISDN. The 7E Talking Head TH-1 VideoPhone is
shown with HNS-9201 BGAN (left) but can be used with GAN terminals also (see bottom right). Two GAN
terminals can be used in 128 kbps mode with a S0DA DU0 Multiplexer.
The TH-1 contains an adjustable 6.4" TFT display and speaker integrated into a tough
waterproof case adequate for cables, microphones, and headphones.
The TH-1 offers H.263 realtime video or high quality 7.5kHz audio and low speed pictures.
A simple mixing facility on the unit enables low-Z
microphones and balanced or unbalanced line sources can be connected simultaneously. An I/O
processor optimizes the audio/video for transmission and provides both professional XLR/BNC and
domestic phono connections. Headphone
jack sockets provide direct and cue (return) signals for monitoring purposes. The unit requires
90-264VAC 47-400Hz or 10.8-14.4V VDC (remote control requires two AA batteries).

Throughout my seven weeks in Kuwait and Iraq, the
videophone equipment
exceeded my performance expectations. It was a breeze to set up, and
traveling with the equipment was easy. U.S. Army vehicles had plenty of
room for the gear, allowing me to concentrate on shooting video, and
getting the story, not the equipment. It was a
harsh environment to take
sensitive
electronics into, but daily cleanings, and dustings kept us on the move.
When we did stop and set up to go live, or feed, I usually looked for a
patch of gravel to set up on...It seemed to help keep the dust out of
the gear. Tuning the phones in for peak signal was always a quick process,
and connecting to the talking head
unit couldn't have been easier. Usually, I could unpack the gear, dial-up to the satellite, and
begin broadcasting inside of 10 minutes. The ease of use and reliability of the equipment
cannot be stressed enough. I was able to have the equipment function
well in conditions that halted military operations. I highly recommend this
equipment to anyone looking for a portable, dependable system to deliver
high quality video from ANYWHERE in the world.
