A transportable, software-defined HF radio that scales from 1 W to 150 W, carrying secure long-range voice and data for special forces and remote advise and assist missions.
Specialist support means little if the operator cannot reach it. The Sentry-H Portable Kit (SPK) brings a full software-defined HF radio into a single transportable case, so the connection travels with the operation even when no established network exists. With scalable power from 1 W to 150 W in 1 W steps, the SPK can accommodate discreet signatures or long-haul links, with no external amplifier or built-in batteries. Optimised for in-field use, the SPK deploys fast and moves easily around the world.
Equipment should serve more than one kind of mission. The Sentry-H Portable Kit is dual-use: paired with an end-user device running SprintChat or SprintNet, it carries secure email, file transfer, and chat over narrowband HF; paired with a laptop running INL waveforms, it opens up to 512 kHz of ultra-wideband performance. A single SPK carries legacy interoperability and modern secure data together, so it works alongside the systems already in service.
Critical communications must survive the mission. The Sentry-H Portable Kit ships in a rugged, waterproof Pelican case built to a MIL-STD-810G design, running from any 10 V to 36 V power source. AES-256 and DES-56 COMSEC protect every voice and data path, while embedded GPS keeps position awareness live. Designed and built by Codan and field-proven with special forces in Remote Advice and Assist roles, the SPK is backed by DTC 24/7 support teams across 165+ countries.

The Sentry-H Portable Kit puts sovereign, long-range HF communications into one transportable case that scales from 1 W to 150 W. Operators gain secure voice and data over narrowband or ultra-wideband HF, with TWELP and MELP digital voice, in a build made to move and survive in the toughest environments. From special forces reachback to maritime and unmanned operations, the Sentry-H Portable Kit performs where infrastructure ends.
