PacStar 400-Series Quick Reaction Kit - EXEC

Lightweight and modular, the PacStar 400-series Quick Reaction Kit (QRK) - EXEC is a secure communications package for executive communicators, quick reaction forces and intelligence missions.  Rugged and functional by design, the QRK-EXEC provides VoSIP, cellular, wireless and video services.  Included is a Cisco based PacStar 441 SRM router and the choice of a second PacStar 441 SRM for dual network connectivity or a PacStar 442 switch module for network expansion. 

The PacStar QRK-EXEC accepts worldwide AC and wide range DC (10 - 36 V DC) through a unique design that has a flexible power module at the core. The kit provides clean 12 V to power a KG-250X HAIPE.  Snap-together connectors enable the system to operate off common AN/PRC-148 batteries or BA-5590 and BB-2590 military batteries. 

Supporting multiple enclaves and multiple types of backhaul, the PacStar QRK-EXEC has access points for hotel, VSAT, Thuraya or the integrated BGAN and 3G/4G access points. 

AT Communications can provide a wide array of customized PacStar Compact Case systems providing packaging and transport options for the PacStar 400-series Options include brief-case style, transit case- style, and rack mount solutions, combining the PacStar 400-series modules into integrated deployable solutions. 

An option for managing the PacStar 400-series solutions is the PacStar IQ-Core® Software, which ensures the system is configured correctly in the field.  The PacStar IQ-Core® simplifies system setup and network management.
