The AN/PRC-158 is an advanced, dual-channel manpack radio designed for dismounted soldiers, vehicular installations, and fixed-site operations. Unlike older generation radios that required separate units for different frequency bands, the PRC-158 processes disparate waveforms simultaneously across its two channels. Key Specifications: 30 MHz to 2.5 GHz. Channels: Two fully independent, transceiver channels.
Includes routing and crossbanding technologies that allow voice and data sharing across different networks. Safety & Maintenance
