Comms Switching and Control Sys

Abstract

Combat Data Network (CDN): The CDN provides a modular, integrated and interoperable suite of deployable network infrastructure equipment that facilitates network, routing, switching and hosting capability across all tactical echelons of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF). CDN enables Non-secure Internet Protocol Router Network (NIPRNet), Secret Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet) and coalition network enclaves and serves as the hardware component responsible for hosting the Marine Corp's tactical cloud (Common Hosting Environment (CHE)). The CHE tactical cloud hosts warfighting applications and services that support Command and Control (C2) at the tactical edge. The CDN bridges the gap between current capabilities and the future of the tactical data communications backbone, Operational Command Post (OCP). The Operational Command Post delivers distinct new capabilities to the MAGTF enhancing tactical maneuverability, dispersion, signature management, and situational awareness. OCP takes existing networking and cloud capabilities, modernizes these capabilities, and delivers the Fleet Marine Force tactical users one intuitive System of Systems (SoS) capable of being deployed in numerous fashions to support unique mission sets.
