Key facts
Give controllers a broad grasp of the entire network.
A versatile system such as CERTIUM needs a versatile user interface for all the functions while remaining clear and structured. The R&S®GB5400 controller working positions provide a clean and intuitive user GUI. The CWP employs the IP network architecture functions to make forwarding and cross-coupling calls across platforms easier than ever before. The flexibility of external audio boxes make the R&S®GB5400 a powerful platform that can fit any customer needs
Straightforward air-ground and ground-ground communications from a common GUI
The controller working position (CWP) is the main command interface for the many VCS system functions. The R&S®GB5400 standard CWP combines ground-ground and air-ground communications into one interface for flexible system adjustment. Controllers can easily cross-couple HF and VHF channels together from the CWP or cross-connect any of them to a phone line.
Coordinate voice between different media.
Put your controllers in command with powerful and intuitive CWPs.
State-of-the-art IP network architecture
The principal topology at the heart of the CERTIUM universe is the full IP network architecture for a common communication standard between all individual devices. The quad-redundant design gives controllers all the advantages of scalable architecture, such as a virtual center or flexible allocation of resources, while adding an additional layer of security. Controllers also benefit from additional system integration features such as live camera feeds on the CWP screen.
Signature Rohde & Schwarz quad redundant IP architecture
Extend the scope of a CWP system beyond legacy standards.
Modular system design
The R&S®GB5400 standard controller working positions use intelligent software. The modular design paradigm lets the device fully meet customer requirements. Extending our modular hardware framework to software has let us create a genuinely versatile platform for a whole new level of customization.
All around integration for functional synergy
A broad range of modules are available for both CWP form factors to enhance the universal use case.
In line with strict Rohde & Schwarz quad-redundant principles
Rohde & Schwarz believes in unconditional safety and has the technology for it. Our entire VCS system setup is built on redundant network interfaces. The interfaces ensure maximum availability in any situation together with redundant power supplies for every network device. Our quad-redundant topology goes one step further and lets one CWP to connect to several VCS units to minimize the likelihood and impact of a single device failing.
Strong links only
Since a system is only as strong as its weakest link, we eliminated the weak links altogether.
