EONIC Selected by German Ministry of Defense

PR Log (Press Release) – Dec 11, 2007 – Delft, The Netherlands.  EONIC B.V. today announced that its SR-5124 Converged Multi-Channel Signals Acquisition System has been selected by the Bundesamt für Wehrtechnik und Beschaffung (BWB) of the German Ministry of Defense to upgrade the existing ELINT and COMINT infrastructure. The upgrade will be conducted in partnership with Schönhofer Sales and Engineering GmbH (SSE) in Siegburg, Germany.

“Being selected by the German Ministry of Defense makes us very proud”, said Hans Vanderhoek, CEO of EONIC.  “It is testimony to the quality and capability of our product.” SR-5124 systems are deployed across the Navy, Army, Air Force and Intelligence Organizations of the German Armed Forces.

The SR-5124 is the world’s first SIGINT system which integrates ELINT and COMINT that captures radio, satcom, telemetry and radar signals simultaneously and synchronously. This unique combination of ELINT and COMINT provides novel approaches to situational awareness. It also simplifies lifecycle management and dramatically reduces the cost of training, spares and maintenance. Moreover, the highly integrated nature of the SR-5124 reduces the need for physical space, always a critical issue in intelligence vehicles.

Furthermore, the SR-5124 offers exceptional dynamic range, simultaneous recording of multiple channels, playback while record and compatibility with existing signal analysis tools.  It enables a combination of video baseband, radio communicatons, satellite communications and radar signals to be detected, monitored and recorded simultaneously on a single system. An intuitive user interface is included, as well as anti-aliasing filters and gain control measures.

The SR-5124 targets intelligence organizations who are replacing their legacy tape recorders. One SR-5124 typically replaces 4 to 8 tape recorders plus the associated user control software and analog filters.  This way, the SR-5124 saves a lot of space and reduces logistical complexities.
