The Indian Army has introduced its first indigenous chip-based 4G mobile base station, procured from Signaltron, a Bangalore-based firm, via the government e-marketplace portal. Developed using India's own Signalchip technology, the Sahyadri LTE base stations mark a significant milestone in domestic communication technology. Signaltron's Sahyadri Network In a Box (NIB) systems, weighing just 7 kgs, offer secure wireless communication for audio, video, and data, operating seamlessly in standalone or cellular modes. With 20 units supplied initially, the army plans strategic deployments based on operational needs, enhancing flexibility and security with locally developed chip technology.
