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). OCP introduces several critical new capabilities to support the force and improve command and control and situational awareness in a degraded communications environment. These materiel solutions will further enhance current cybersecurity resiliency, provide greater kill chain and kill web facilitation and enhancements, expand tactical connections, and provide critical user interface upgrades to increase the speed of information and command post efficiency. New capabilities include the following items: wireless and secure wireless capabilities, Cross Domain Solutions, enhanced tactical connections (via Radio over Internet Protocol (RoIP) and cellular), upgraded audiovisual equipment, tactical chat enhancements, and ability to host Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) enabled applications.
