1 TOCNET Enabling More Intercommunications Domestic Operations Task Force November 2016 SCI Proprietary Information See cover page for disclaimer 1

2 What is TOCNET A communications system comprised of Gateways & User Access Units Gateways emcsu, MCSU-VX, MCSU-V, etc. Serves as hub, switch, mux for both voice and data services Provides HW interface to external assets (radios, Ethernet, POTS, etc.) User Access Units CAU, ecau, TRIM, Soft CAU, etc. Serves as the Human Machine Interface to the Communications System Allows the user to access TOCNET services (e.g.. radios, VoIP call, intercom nets, etc.) All audio can be routed through same headset Provides differing levels of functionality and are tailored to specific operator roles TOCNET is a software defined digital intercommunication system Provides industry standard external interfaces Uses open standards, modular and expandable Easily upgraded to support new features and expanded capabilities via SW updates TOCNET -C TOCNET -V TOCNET -G4 See cover page for disclaimer 2

5 Multi-echelon interoperability enables more timely and persistent communications* Ground/Air Operations Center VoIP Networks Military Radio Networks Tactical Conferences Android Users Other Networked Assets Commercial Radio Networks Military Radio Networks Dismounted Users See cover page for disclaimer *With proper authority and pin number restrictions 5

6 Improving DOMOPS InterCommunications County EMA Guard TOC/Command Center 24 Network (Ethernet) Deployed Response Team #1 using cell phone via LTE Deployed Response Team #2 using commercial radios Joint Response Team #3 using both commercial and military radios Support for legacy analog, POTS interfaces to latest gen digital networks Enables all commercial and tactical assets to be conferenced together Complements existing com network by adding: VoIP to Tactical Radio Tactical Radio to Cell Phone Cross banding between commercial and tactical radio networks with TOCNET, radio communication assets remain available for other uses Single button initiation for distributed roll calls or hotwash out briefs Advantage of small footprint, rugged, green gear vs. larger commercial gear Linking ARNG and ANG aerial and ground assets See cover page for disclaimer 6

7 TOCNET - ARNG Usage Concept Seamlessly bridging tactical and commercial assets Capabilities deployed: Monitor/Transmit on Commercial/Military radios from a single TOCNET interface vs. manual radio interaction Remote Radio Control Remote access to radios from separate floor in the building Bridging phone calls into radio network See cover page for disclaimer 7

8 How the ANG uses TOCNET for TACP ASOC Mobile Node with Radio Assets Soft Client run on multi-use rugged portable Can be visually optimized for each user mission role Allows for each user to access radios without physical access Used with permission of Justin Corder, AECOM 168 th Army Support Squadron out of Peoria, Ill - Uses TOCNET in the ASOC Gateway Multiple voice net access across multiple work stations Networked Soft CAU allows each user station to have full access to radios without being in close proximity to them Described as a huge advantage by Sgt Joe Bush See cover page for disclaimer 8

9 How the ANG uses TOCNET for TACP ASOC Remote Node accessing radios across network (RoIP) Connection to hub can be wired, fiber, wireless Remote node is in transit case Note that remote user gains access to radios across the network and does not have to be co-located with the asset Enables asset sharing without all nodes to have identical equipment Eliminates effort and resources associated with radio re-transmit sites Optimizes deployment of equipment and lowers overall cost Used with permission of Justin Corder, AECOM See cover page for disclaimer 9

10 TOCNET - TN ARNG Distributed Exercise Bridging disparate type nodes across the area Capabilities deployed: Merging of communication assets for Monitor/Transmit on wired GuardNet, tactical radio network, commercial radios Stand alone nodes can be unattended Bridging phone calls into radio network Evacuation Site using commercial radios and cross banding with local SINCGARS radios back to Tracy City location Open extended voice channels will enable a commercial radio being keyed in the field to be heard at primary JEOC in Nashville Enables Battle Update Briefs and Meet Me conferences between all points Supports inclusion of land line or cellular network to be incorporated into conferences Can initiate ad-hoc conferences with aerial asset Remote Radio Control Quoted fly-away com kits for rapid response and linking armories across the state See cover page for disclaimer 10

11 Designed to Interoperate While can be deployed on classified networks, TOCNET, as a system, can be deployed on unclassified networks. Complements many existing communications systems via digital IP connection. Integrates seamlessly into wireless networks via commercial wireless routers to extend the reach of radio communications Compatible with Cisco Unified Call Manager and Call Manager Express; HOWEVER, can operate as a standalone SIP client and reduce the cost/footprint for distributed operations Enables Radio Networking Radio/Waveform Agnostic for Voice and PTT, Simulcast, Radio over IP (RoIP), Radio Conferencing Radio Cross Banding and Relay of any similar/dissimilar radio systems and/or waveforms Voice Cross Banding of radios with VoIP, telephones, and other ICS assets Wide support for commercial radios icom F80, Motorola XTS series and CDM 750, Harris XG-100M, Maxon SP-140U2, EF_Johnson GS4, others Supports Audio and Radio Control for many deployed military radio systems ARC-220, ARC-231, PRC-117F, PRC-117G, PRC-148 MBTR, PRC-148 JEM, PRC-150, PRC-152, PRC-152A, PRC-154, PRC-155, PSC-5D, and SINCGARS JITC Certified Authority to Operate Certificate of Networthiness GDC4S Fortress Wireless Mesh Bridge See cover page for disclaimer 11
