Silvus Retools StreamCaster Product Line for Spectrum Dominance

January 12th, 2021

New Radio Models, Waveform Features Provide Superior Tools to Mitigate Electronic Warfare Threats

Los Angeles, California (January 6, 2021) – Silvus Technologies, Inc. (“Silvus”) today announced the release of its newest radio models and waveform features designed to deliver reliable performance in congested and contested environments for an expanded variety of missions.

The release of the StreamCaster Lite 4200 (SL4200) represents not only the newest addition to the StreamCaster line, but also the smallest and lightest radio Silvus has ever offered. Designed for applications that are size, weight, and power (SWaP) or cost constrained, the SL4200 leverages Silvus’ Mobile Networked MIMO (MN-MIMO) waveform operating in narrowband channels as small as 1.25MHz.

Additionally, Silvus has announced 10W and 20W versions of the existing StreamCaster 4200 (SC4200) and StreamCaster 4400 (SC4400). Offering increased output power without an increase in size or weight, these high-power models are intended to deliver extended performance for long range applications.

Silvus has also expanded the capabilities of its Mobile Networked MIMO (MN-MIMO) waveform, with Spectrum Monitoring now included free on all SC4200 and SC4400 models. Additional MN-MIMO features include MANET Interference Avoidance (MAN-IA) and MANET Interference Cancellation (MAN-IC). The highest tier offering, the Spectrum Dominance Package, includes other Anti-Jam, LPI, and LPD features, and will be available to US Government end users only in early 2021.

“Backed by our leading MN-MIMO waveform, the expansion of the StreamCaster radio line marks a significant addition to the tactical communications environment,” said Jimi Henderson, Silvus Vice President of Sales. “Rounding out our suite of available products and licensable software options will allow us to deliver robust and reliable wireless communications for a wider variety of mission scenarios, providing Silvus users with capability overmatch in the spectrum domain.”

The SL4200 is immediately available, with 10W and 20W versions of the SC4200 and SC4400, and Spectrum Dominance waveform features being released later in the year. For more information on StreamCaster radios or to request a demo, visit silvustechnologies.com or email info@silvustechnologies.com.

Benchmade is kicking off the year by announcing 14 new knife models and two new tools. That’s a lot to chew on so we’ll give you an overview and point out the highlights.

Meet Magpul’s new lightweight precision stock, the PRS Lite.

The PRS Lite Stock provides much of the same adjustability and many features of the PRS GEN3 Precision-Adjustable Stock, with the added benefits of reduced weight and a price that’s almost half of its fully featured counterpart.

At 10 ounces lighter than the PRS GEN3, it provides an optimized shooter interface with .8” of comb height and 1.4” of LOP adjustments. The low-profile rubber butt-pad is adjustable for height and cant and provides an extremely stable interface with the shooter’s shoulder. There are multiple attachment options for slings, including an ambidextrous 1.25” footman’s loop, a reversible QD sling swivel cup, and space for another optional QD sling swivel cup.

The PRS Lite is intended for carbine/SR25/A5 buffer tubes on .223 and .308 receiver-pattern rifles. It is not compatible with A1/A2 rifle tubes or rifle-length receiver extensions.

Offered in Black, FDE and OD Green at $119.95.
