Spectra DTP4700 SCA comes pre-integrated and packaged with:

•

• Full duplex RF Transceiver, providing wide operating range: 400 MHz to 4 GHz or 30 MHz to 1.6 GHz.
• RF Front-End to the RF Transceiver to create a high performance fully-fieldable radio system.
• Housed in a rugged 1U enclosure with removable cover for access to the hardware.

• ADLINK’s benchmark-setting SCA 2.2.2 compliant Core Framework, together with SCA Devices and ORB/COS.
• Demonstration SCA Waveform / Application.
• User documentation.
• All available off-the-shelf with simple licensing and support contracts.

Spectra DTP4700 SCA provides a number of key benefits:

• Capable of hosting high data rate waveforms.
• Wide RF operating range.
• Ideal for low power consumption handheld applications.
• Efficient Linux based development environment.

• Frequency range can support a broad range of commercial, public safety and military requirements.

• SCA development for the OMAP ARM GPP and C64x DSP processors.

• High performance, cost effective SCA development and test platform.

# Spectra CX Radio Development Tool

A one year subscription for Spectra CX is also included as part of the Spectra Quick Start SCA Development and Test Package. Spectra CX is a model-driven development tool that simplifies, accelerates, and validates a significant proportion of the SCA development process. In addition, it validates SCA compliance at the architectural and unit test level.

Spectra CX provides the following capabilities:

• Generates SCA component source code in C & C++ that is correct by construction.
• Modeling, generation and deployment of SCA compliant waveform components on both GPP and DSP processors.
• Roadmap to FPGA modeling and VHDL code generation.
• Generates SCA compliant artifacts such as: XML descriptor files, compliance test reports and validation documentation.
• Spectra CX enables SCA and non-SCA software aspects to be developed together, integrated early and thoroughly tested.
• Single integration model reduces development risk.
• Results in a faster time-to-market, lower costs, better software quality and superior compliance for all SCA waveform and platform code developed using Spectra.

• SCA Radio Monitoring tool:

o Providing a uniform platform and waveform control mechanism.
o SCA based control of any waveform launched on the radio.
。 Support for remotely installing and uninstalling waveforms in the radio.
Support for switching between multiple waveforms without having to reboot the radio.
