Technical Specification
Network applications
TAN T nodes inter-connect heterogeneous tactical
networks, wired and wireless, IP and non-IP, into
Tactical All-IP one unified All-IP communication domain. This
Communication enables a transparent and robust IP network for
Domain tactical environments, where users can
communicate end-to-end without technology
boundaries.
Multi-Protocol TAN T supports multiple IP routing protocols, and
Routing can intelligently arbitrate between them.
Multiple tactical network types like Ethernet, E1,
Heterogeneous
SHDSL, Eurocom, CNR, or WLAN can be connected
Networking
to TAN T.
TAN T can be used as autonomous mesh network

node.
High-Performance TAN T includes non-blocking, full gbit/s line rate
Ethernet Switching Ethernet switch (optical and copper).
Standards compliant IPSec VPN tunnels for LAN
Ethernet ports supporting multiple authentica-
Site-to-Site VPN
tion and encryption schemes can be established
between TAN T nodes. Available Q2/2011
Multiple VoIP and circuit switched voice
Multi-Protocol Voice
technologies (SIP, IAX, ISDN, Eurocom, Analog)
Switch (PBX)
are supported by the built-in PBX.
The TAN T PBX can convert between all supported
VoIP Gateway voice technologies, allowing it to be used as VoIP
gateway, e.g. ISDN-to-SIP, or Analog-to-SIP.
Multiple TAN T nodes can build a fully inter-
connected voice network. Flexible number
Voice Trunking
translation per voice trunk allows for integration
into different numbering domains.
Routing algorithms optimized for low bandwidth,
Integration of HF/ high latency radio networks are available and
VHF/LOS Radios allow to route traffic over wireless radio
networks.
TAN T provides network services to locally
Network Services
attached LANs, as DHCP, DNS, and NTP services.
The built-in QoS engine allows for shaping traffic

with prioritization based on DiffServ or 802.1D
Shaping
classification.
Data features
TAN T provides non-blocking, line rate switching
Switching / VLAN for all LAN Ethernet ports (copper and optical)
including support for 802.1Q VLAN.
TAN T routing engine supports static, OSPF, BGP,
PIM-SM, and IGMP routing protocols. Specialized
routing algorithms are available for mesh

802.11 a/b/g
IP PBX supporting analogue (FXO, FXS, radio),
digital (ISDN, Eurocom), and VoIP (SIP, H.323,
IAX) interfaces. Technology neutral voice
switching core combined with voice application
platform for fast development of customer
specific voice features. Support for direct inward
and outward dial (DID/DOD) with caller-ID.
Full voice gateway functionality including
support for DTMF and caller-ID for all available
analogue, digital, and VoIP interfaces.
Number translation (NT) applied on called and
calling numbers for incoming and outgoing calls.
PBX includes multiple NT hooks in call routing
path, as e.g. one NT per voice trunk. TAN T can be
easily integrated into existing dialing plans.
IAX trunks allow to setup bandwidth optimized
VoIP channel bundles between TAN T nodes. ISDN,
Eurocom, SIP, and H.323 trunks are available for
connecting TAN T to existing telephony
infrastructure, including PSTN.
Number flood searching allows for deploying flat
dialplans.
