The VDC-800 advances the ViaSat "IP to the Tactical Edge" approach to warfighter communications by adding the high-speed, plug-and-play USB interface to the ViaSat Data Controller (VDC) family. This USB data controller extends IP and TCP/IP networking to the soldier, sailor, airman, or marine on the leading edges of the battlespace.
Combat users can connect the VDC-800 via USB to a computer or handheld device and use it with any current tactical radio to run IP-based critical combat communications applications, such as Situational Awareness, white-board collaboration, chat, messaging, and email, almost as if they were at their own desktop computer. Warfighters can also use the VDC-800 to transmit Cursor-on-Target core data elements for military interoperability, including direct fire mission, blue force tracking, surveillance results, and airspace deconfliction information
