Sanmina-SCI Corporation has developed Redi-Comm, a commercial version of its military-proven TocNet intercommunication system. Redi-Comm is designed for emergency first responders, homeland security and other emergency agencies that require a rugged, easily deployed and simple-to-use communication system to interconnect radios, wireless devices, and other types of voice, data and video equipment.

The basic Redi-Comm system comprises one MC8000 series microcontroller and one PC-based operator's software license. The MC8000 series microcontroller is a 19-inch, rack-mount module and supports eight radios, 64 VoIP devices, four T1/E1 interfaces, three 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet interfaces and nine serial interfaces. For larger applications, up to 64 MC8000 series microcontrollers can be interconnected via a fiber or Ethernet backbone.

Redi-Comm also includes an optional 802.11 b/g wireless router, touch-screen operator console, a 24-port voice and data channel bank — as well as 800 MHz dual and single mobile radio modules.

Unlike most other solutions on the market today, the MC8000 series microcontroller module houses all the communications interfaces in a single module. This approach provides the user with maximum flexibility for interoperating with a wide variety of commercial and military communications systems in a small form factor at an affordable price.
