Raytheon - Applied Signal Technology
Broadband Communication Systems

National Leaders in Secure Broadband Communications

Raytheon AST is a nationally recognized leader in secure broadband communication systems, primarily for government markets. We design, develop, and integrate high-capacity communication systems for resource-constrained environments. Our sophisticated solutions enable private networks to operate at the highest communication rates while simultaneously monitoring and scanning all channels to recognize anomalous conditions and events.

 

Modularity and Scalability to Meet Specific Mission Requirements

Many of our products and systems use our open advanced selection architecture that incorporates custom and commercially available hardware and software in configurations capable of being readily deployed, adapted, or upgraded. This reconfigurable design methodology allows our products and systems to respond to challenging requirements presented by quick-reaction mission profiles. The benefits include shorter implementation schedules, flexibility, improved interoperability with other systems, and reduced system upgrade costs to our customers.
