Introduction

This unique and exceptionally versatile MiniBox™ IV from DTC

Communications, a COBHAM Company, is a fourth generation covert

video system. A complete product family includes three base packages

plus an impressive array of communication options to meet your speciﬁc

mission and agency requirements.

Each base model supports the optional wireless IP-based video

surveillance capability. A modular design permits your choice, at time

of order, of an appropriate wireless transmission option as well as the

additional privacy of an industry recognized ﬁrewall router. The design

offers you the ﬂexibility to add (or change out) the wireless modem and

router modules, up to one each, which extends the life of your investment!

The MiniBox IV RF base models uniquely provide PTZ control via IP

Networks and/or (optional) DTMF radio comm links, all packaged in a

single covert utility box. Furthermore, these models provide simultaneous

video transmissions via (optional) RF and IP based connections. This

comprehensive set of PTZ control and video transmission options will

satisfy your local agent on the ground, as well as IP network remote

viewing & control. They are backwards compatible with existing DTC

equipment using DTMF controllers and analog & digital RF video receivers

and thus provide the latest IP network connectivity to your surveillance

solution set.

The digital Palladium™ models excel in tough urban RF environments

with security (AES 128 encryption), narrow band transmission to handle

crowded RF bandwith, and diversity and forward error correction to meet

the challenges of RF reﬂectance (multipath fading) and NLOS applications.
