Role 2 Field Hospital Communications and Information System

field-hospital-1This project provides the necessary communications and information to the operators of the Role 2 Field Hospital – mobile hospital designed especially for deployed combat support missions.

The communications and information system is installed in the shelters delivered by UNITEAM for the Role 2 Field Hospital. Interactive designed and installed the communications equipment in several types of shelters: ISO shelter, 2-1 shelter, 3-1 shelter, each suited for its specific role in the hospital and each with its unique EMC and COMSEC/EMSEC requirements.

field-hospital-2The CIS system provides the following functionality:

  • Access to data and voice networks using STANAG 4406, EUROCOM D1, E1, ISDN lines, HDSL, satellite, ETH and HF/VHF radios;
  • Multiple security domains: NATO SECRET, MISSION SECRET and UNCLASSIFIED  (Internet) ;
  • Each security domain has its own servers for data services: Email Servers, Security Certificate Authority (for the classified domains), specific medical software applications, Domain Controllers, SAN, etc;
  • Secure Voice Service both VHF and HF.
  • Data Communications in support of Information Systems.
  • Automatic Position Location Navigation and Reporting (APLNR);
  • Vehicle Tracking System – using the GPS capabilities of the Harris VHF radios. NFFI, IP1 and IP2 – through the implementation of the NFFI standard in the VTS application, the CPR is securely transferred through reliable/secured WAN connections to a higher echelon;
  • Combat Net Radio Access (CNRA);

The CIS commissioning was successfully performed in January 2008 – FAT and SAT in May 2008.

field-hospital-3Interactive SBC performed the system design & engineering, system installation, system commissioning, production, customer training, after sales support.

The system design and engineering effort consisted of:

  • The definition of system interfaces
  • Mechanical expertise in designing the Mobile Command Post in respect to the Human Factors Engineering standards and best practices;
  • The Sub-system and platform design
  • The Integration/Validation and Qualification.
  • Radio, Data terminals, Telephone and Power distribution electrical design.
  • Radio, Data terminals, Telephone and Power distribution mechanical design.
  • Cables definition, design and manufacturing

The program consists of one Communications and Information System deployed on the following platforms: qty 1 Command Post Shelter, qty 10 vehicles and qty 24 tents and shelters.
