Canadian DND chooses Rohde & Schwarz HF communications

The Canadian Department of National Defence chooses Rohde & Schwarz to replace high frequency (HF) receivers across Canada with the company’s HF radios.

Rohde & Schwarz has been awarded a standing offer contract by the Canadian Department of National Defence (DND) for the replacement of high frequency (HF) receivers at multiple sites across Canada.

In the next five years, the Canadian DND will be receiving R&S M3SR Series4100 HF receivers by Rohde & Schwarz. The new receivers will be distributed at strategic assets for the Royal Canadian Navy, the Canadian Army and the Royal Canadian Air Force.

The R&S M3SR Series4100 family’s HF receivers, part of the successfully introduced SOVERON radio family from Rohde & Schwarz, are state-of-the-art radio systems designed to take HF communications to the next level and support future capabilities, such as HF wideband. It is a powerful radio platform that can be extended at any time, making it a safe, future-ready investment.

“We are very proud to have our future ready HF equipment chosen by the Canadian DND,” says Alipio Gonzalez, Regional Sales Manager, Naval Communications Systems, Rohde & Schwarz. “Our R&S M3SR Series4100 family meets future requirements for wideband HF and provides armed forces with robust, dependable data communications, increased bandwidth, high-quality connectivity and improved resilience.”

All Rohde & Schwarz equipment is in line with the relevant MIL-STDs for naval applications and proven in more than 40 navies.
