Network Extension Unit

Raytheon Company’s JPS Communications announces the NXU-2A, a new device that replaces its legacy NXU-2 Network eXtension unit. The device uses radio over Internet protocol and voice over Internet protocol technology to send and receive digital voice messages.

The unit is a general-purpose, stand-alone device that connects communication equipment to a digital network (local area network, wide area network or Internet). It is intended for use with radios, radio communication consoles and JPS products such as the ACU-1000 Interconnect Unit and the SNV-12 Signal-and-Noise Voter. New features include the ability to delay transmit and receive audio, voice modulation recognition, support of multicast IP and quality of service, a selectable 20-decibel gain boost on audio input, and a “restore to factory defaults” setting.
