The MoSA-M4 platform
Designed and manufactured by Broadcast Solutions, Mobile Situational Awareness (MoSA)
platforms facilitate the deployment of tactical communication systems. The MoSA-M4 is a
panel van that integrates a command, control, communications and computers (C4) suite
with optimised storage and logistics.

Data backhaul on the move
Such integration becomes all the more relevant when a
backhaul to a remote data centre or central command
and control is ensured. To that effect, all Broadcast
Solutions MoSA platforms cater for a variety of remote
communications equipment. The standard bonded
cellular connection can be complemented with a bi-
directional satellite link. Depending on operational
requirements, such a satellite terminal can support static
or on-the-move transmissions to a variety of networks-
both civilian Ku- and Ka-bands as well as military X-band.The MoSA M1 Platform
