Parakeet Virtual Cable Concept Demonstrator

Abstract

Project Parakeet is deploying a secure military telephony system into Australia's land forces. The Battlespace Command Support System (BCSS) project is deploying local area networks (LAN) and computers to these same forces. This report describes a concept demonstration that permits the use of the BCSS LAN for the connection of Parakeet telephones to the Parakeet circuit switches rather than using separate cabling. Such a device would provide for faster setup/teardown of deployed headquarters and reduce the demands on linesmen to lay cable within the headquarters.
