The
Barrett 2050 HF transceiver, the centre piece of the 2000
series of HF communications equipment, combines current
technology with the intuitive, “ease
of use” that has become synonymous
with Barrett Communications equipment.
In
addition to providing all common modes of HF transmission,
most currently used selective call formats and MIL STD
188-141B Automatic Link Establishment, the 2050 transceiver
has a new generation, simple to operate, frequency hopping
option.
The
heart of the 2050 is a flexible soft-core processor and
powerful DSP system that delivers superior reception and
noise reduction while providing very low current consumption.
Housed
in a lightweight, extremely strong sealed aluminium chassis,
2050 meets MIL STD 810F for drop, dust, temperature, shock
and vibration.
The
2050 transceiver is packaged ready to operate as a desktop
transceiver, and by adding the inexpensive “mobile
pack” the 2050 becomes a mobile (trunk mounted)
transceiver. This simplifies the logistics of holding
base station and mobile transceivers within large organisations.
Teaming
the versatile 2050 transceiver with other 2000 series
products provides email, fax, telephone and data connectivity
within an HF network and onwards to both the international
telephone network and the Internet.
Physically 40% smaller than our 900 series, the 2050 in
a local control configuration measures only 185mm W x
270mm D x 70mm H and weighs less than 2.6kg.

Configuration
Flexibility
The 2050 transceiver is packaged as a desktop (local
control) transceiver and with the addition of the simple
and inexpensive Mobile pack the 2050 is quickly reconfigured
to a mobile (trunk mount) transceiver. This feature simplifies
the logistics of stocking the right transceiver for the
right application. The modular design of the 2000 series
of products as a whole enables a basic 2050 transceiver
to adapt quickly and easily between base station, mobile,
email, fax and data and manpack configurations.

Digital
Signal Processing (DSP)
A
single DSP chip provides modulation and demodulation of
all on air signalling used in the ALE, selective call
and syllabic mute processes and provides noise reduction
of received signals.
Frequency
hopping option
A
simple to operate, unique frequency hopping system that
has no network entry time or late entry time. Simply enter
the hop band, cipher key number and talk.
Simple
architecture
The
transceiver uses only two microprocessors, the main processor
uses a soft loaded core while the second processor is
used within the control head to operate the display and
keypad.
Selective
call options
Fitted
with both a CCIR 493-4 based, four and six digit system
of which the protocol is available for free distribution
and an OEM protocol that is fully compatible with other
major HF manufacturers four and six digit systems that
utilise encryption.
“SMS
Pagecall”
Allows
short text messages to be sent from one 2050 transceiver
to another. Barrett 2050 transceivers have alpha-numeric
input keys (similar to mobile phones) that allow direct
text message input (without the need for an external PC
or Palm type input device)
BITE
- Built In Test Equipment
Tests
receiver performance, selcall, syllabic mute, VCO operation
and serial communications port viability.
Programming
by IR or serial port
For
ease of programming in a vehicle a notebook computer loaded
with the 2000 series programming package can load a transceiver's
parameters without the need for cables through the remote
head IR port.
Second
antenna connector
Allows
each channel to select one of two antennas - ideal when
long and short distance antennas are used.
Manpack Configuration
Inserting
the 2050 into the 2040 manpack adaptor, the complete unit
becomes a lightweight (6.4kg) manpack transceiver with
built-in automatic antenna tuner, battery management system
and removable lithium ion battery cartridge. All connections
such as handsets and auxiliary units are made through
military specification connectors. Available with the
manpack is a custom made backpack and frame assembly designed
to hold the manpack, accessories normally used with the
unit and other personal items.
Direct
dial telephone calls
“Telcall”
option provides direct dialing access with Barrett Communications
HF Telephone Interconnects and most interconnects from
other manufacturers.
Secure
Call
An
option that provides a medium level of voice encryption
for message privacy.
ALE
- Automatic Link Establishment
An
embedded internal option fully interoperable with FED
STD 1045 ALE systems. Also capable of full 16 digit
telephone dialing (using FED STD 1045 ALE as the signalling
medium) with Barrett 960 or Barrett 2060 ALE equipped
telephone interconnects.
GPS
tracking
An
option that supports connection to an external GPS receiver
for tracking applications using the Barrett 977 tracking
system.
HF
email and data
The
2050 transceiver auxiliary connector is fully featured
to interface to a variety of external modems including
the Barrett 2020 HF email system and the Barrett 923
email and data system.
