SPX Communication Technologies unveils Evenlode Lite

Radio frequency (RF) technology specialists SPX Communication Technologies recently launched Evenlode Lite, an entry-level video downlink system designed for regions new to airborne surveillance or those looking to enhance intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities. As the need for real-time situational awareness grows, Evenlode Lite offers a cost-effective solution for search and rescue (SAR) teams. 

Evenlode Lite is an introductory version of the Evenlode system, operationally proven across the UK, Europe and the Middle East. Comprising an air data terminal and ground data terminal, it provides reliable, secure, real-time transmission of up to 4K video, audio, GPS, and telemetry data from airborne platforms to static or mobile ground teams. 

The system is tailored for integrators and end users in regions across Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East, offering a low barrier to entry for organizations seeking to improve ISR capabilities without the complexity and cost typically associated with such systems.

Key features:

• Complete end-to-end solution that seamlessly integrates with existing video systems to deliver live intelligence directly to ground teams
• Cost-effective: by reducing entry-level costs, Evenlode Lite makes airborne data transmission more accessible to a broader range of users
• International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) exempt: fully exportable to most regions worldwide, Evenlode Lite can be deployed quickly with minimal regulatory constraints or complexity
• Fully secure: equipped with AES256 or substitution cipher encryption, the system protects sensitive data during transmission, making it suitable for domestic security and SAR operations
• Scalable and upgradeable: as concept of operations (CONOPS) requirements evolve, Evenlode Lite can be enhanced with additional features, including dual video channels, onward IP video streaming, and range extensions.

In a new strategic partnership, FlySight recently combined its OPENSIGHT Mission Console with Aitech’s rugged artificial intelligence (AI) supercomputer, A179 Lightning.
