BlackBox

Crescent Systems has partnered with Crystal Rugged to provide an affordable COTS-based rugged server platform to support federal, state, and local special mission applications. This hardware was designed specifically to support mission mapping software and includes a Nvidia RTX 4000 GPU, Intel i5 processor, 16GB DDR4 RAM, and support for up to 8TB of drive space.

 

The server is intended for airborne and ground-based special mission operations and supports the leading mission mapping software vendors, including AEVEX GEOFocis, CarteNAV AIMS, TrakkaMaps, and Overwatch Imaging Automated Sensor Operator.

AUDIO SERVER 1 edit.jpg

Audio Server

The Audio Server is a repackaged commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) Digital Audio Network Server that provides automatic mixing, gain control, gating, and acoustic echo cancellation for headsets and a CODEC. Multiple CODEC interface configurations are possible.

 

The repackaging facilitates connector compatibility with existing aircraft architecture, meets the constraints of a 19” rack installation, and retains all controls and indicators from the COTS device. The Audio Server has fully automatic function and requires no user interaction.

The Audio Server is designed to be paired with the Audio Interface. (Note that CSI’s POE Switch is also required to power the Audio Interface Panels and interface them to the Audio Server.)

Audio Interface

The Audio Interface Panel is a repackaged commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) two-input, two-output device that converts analog to/from headsets and digital Dante IP traffic.

 

The Audio Interface Panel is designed to be paired with the Audio Server. (Note that CSI’s POE Switch is also required to power the Audio Interface Panels and interface them to the Audio Server.)

KVM Switch

The KVM Switch is a four-port keyboard-video-mouse (KVM) that supports DVI-I video along with keyboard, mouse, and CAC peripherals.

The KVM is a repackage of a Blackbox KVM. It's wired to support VGA and DVI-D Dual Link; however, it’s only qualified to VGA and DVI-D Single Link.

Rugged Router

The Rugged Router is a ruggedized Cisco 4331 router using 115VAC 60Hz power with five 1000Base-TX 802.3 at PoE+ interfaces and one 1000Base-T (T1) interface through a blind mate connection in the rear and two 1000Base-SX fiber interfaces via LC duplex connectors on the front.

 

The Rugged Router supports carry-on Voice over IP (VoIP) phones, provides IP connectivity to onboard High Assurance Internet Protocol Encryptors (HAIPEs), and connects to the DVS DSS-2A Red Switch to support up to 24 channels of audio.

Codec

The Codec is a repackaged commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) Cisco Codec. 

The repackaged unit uses rugged MIL-circular connectors while retaining primary I/O features of the COTS item. The Codec is ready to be integrated into existing Video Teleconferencing (VTC) architecture.

The Codec can be used as a standalone unit in some systems and can also be integrated with CSI’s VTC system, which includes a user-friendly user interface that uses an MDX-Series Touch Panel and NX series control process from AMX (also repackaged in rugged form factors).

Remote monitoring is performed through Ethernet connectivity. Data reported can be used for system-level diagnostics and prognostics, enabling predictive, condition-based maintenance, which all helps to provide increased availability and continued mission readiness. 

The local management interface supports channel resets, lockouts, trip indication, system status, and system control.

Audio/Video Processor

The Audio/Video Processor (AVP) is a powerful miniature general purpose computer that combines dual multi-core microprocessors with an audio codec and a dedicated GPU; it’s well-suited for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance applications. The AVP multi-function processing capabilities are key for low-latency HD streaming performance.

The AVP is designed for IP encoding and decoding HD video and audio for secure, high-quality streaming video distribution architectures.
