Vihaan Networks Limited (VNL), India's leading telecom equipment and solution provider, launched a range of cost-effective, indigenously designed, developed and manufactured (IDDM), end-to-end communications and ISR solutions for the armed forces at the recently concluded DefExpo India 2018 held in Chennai.
The mega-exhibition witnessed participation from over 670 defence firms, including 154 foreign manufacturers, showcasing arms, ammunition and military equipment.
Inaugurating the event, Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasised the need for indigenisation of defence manufacturing, to turn India into a manufacturing hub for defence.
Aligned with the Prime Minister's vision of 'innovation' and 'Make in India', VNL has been developing secure communication and ISR systems that epitomize next generation, yet cost-effective, force multipliers for Indian Army, Navy, Air Force and Homeland Security.
Tactical defence increasingly requires transmission of Voice, Video and Data at high speeds. VNL's LTE solutions can facilitate last mile connectivity for Voice, Video & Data over high speed wireless IP (data rate up to 200 Mbps) along with enhanced security between multiple remote locations. The equipment, which can withstand temperatures ranging from 0 to 55 degrees Celsius, can also be deployed for rapid emergency response in hard-to-reach areas.
