TCC expands Military and Law Enforcement Voice Security product line with the HSE 6000 SEAL, Multi-Platform Intercom System (ICS) Voice Encryptor

CONCORD, Mass., Sept. 18, 2017 -- Technical Communications Corporation (Nasdaq:TCCO), an International Communication Security Company, announces the addition of the “HSE 6000 SEAL” (Sea, Air and Land), Multi-Platform Intercom System (ICS) Voice Encryptor to its DSP 9000 and HSE 6000 Military and Law Enforcement Voice Security product line. The HSE 6000 SEAL builds upon the very successful DSP 9000 and the HSE 6000 LMR (Land Mobile Radio) End-to-End voice encryption technology, maintaining the 9000 robust performance as well as the LMR simplicity of use. The HSE 6000 SEAL is a Body-Worn, Vest-Mounted, Battery-Powered, Small and Light in-line voice security device purposefully designed to seamlessly integrate with Naval, Airborne and Ground Intercom Systems (ICS). Connecting directly between the crew helmet and the ICS, the SEAL adds support for binaural (stereo) earphone audio reception, RED Hot‑MIC ICS audio transmission pass-through, battery safety bypass, and Type 1-like Cipher Transmission START/END audio notifications.

The HSE 6000 SEAL is participating in ongoing operational evaluations, and has already been tested on many aircraft, including Aérospatiale SA330 Puma, AgustaWestland AW139, Bell 407, Boeing AH-64 (D/E) Apache and CH-47 Chinook, Eurocopter AS565 Panther and AS332 Super Puma, Sikorsky UH-60 Blackhawk, and MIL MI-17 and MI-28 helicopters.

Powered by TCC’s X NCrypt® End-to-End Cross Network Cryptography technology, our Military and Law Enforcement DSP 9000 and HSE 6000 Voice Security products close the security gap between incompatible radios and telephones, securing voice communication across HF, VHF, UHF and SATCOM frequencies; between Analog, Digital and SDR radios; between Analog, Digital and VoIP telephones; and across radios and telephone networks.

The SEAL is ideal for securing Coalition Forces’ tactical communications on Counter-Terrorism operations.

Fidel Camero, Director of Wireless Products at TCC, said, “We are proud of this new addition to our product line, enabling our customers to have a Multi-Force, Multi-Platform, Rapid Response & Deployment COMSEC option for in‑vehicle and dismounted tactical operations.”
