Alereon is the official provider of the U.S. government\u2019s Intra-Soldier Wireless (ISW) solutions.<\/p>\n<p>The acquisition strengthens Acron Technologies\u2019 rapidly growing defense technologies portfolio by adding personal area networking for real-time, low-power, high-bandwidth communications. As the government pushes forward to remove additional cables, offer lower power, and provide instant connectivity for warfighters on the ground, ISW solutions are being rolled out across many platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Alereon\u2019s NIST and NSA-certified modules allow for quick integration into mission-critical applications, while the commercial solutions are gaining international acceptance as a standard for short-range, reliable video. Alereon\u2019s modules feature superior anti-jamming technology, preventing it from being compromised in virtually any environment.<\/p>\n<p>UWB signals can provide invisibility while still allowing squad connectivity without the need for cables \u2014 all by transmitting below the noise floor. Soldiers can maintain a bubble of anonymity while still leveraging high-data rate, low-power connections. By operating across 8GHz of bandwidth, Alereon radios can support more than 30 simultaneous networks each with dozens of devices.<\/p>\n<p>Acron Technologies brings together complementary technologies across its portfolio. The company is committed to investing in industry leaders that deliver innovative, mission-critical technologies. This acquisition underscores Acron Technologies\u2019 strategy to expand its defense technology capabilities through targeted investments in companies offering innovative resilient communications, assured positioning, navigation, and timing (APNT), advanced sensing and intelligence, and integrated mission systems.<\/p>\n<p>Alereon will retain its existing management, engineering, and sales organization, along with product suite and brand identity.

Alereon supports five different modules supporting USB, parallel data, Octal SPI, and UART interfaces.<\/p>\n<p>Alereon\u2019s ISW modules have supported a variety of government programs including FWS-I, ENVG-B, IVAS, and NGSW-FC. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to see the ISW user space expand with over forty programs either shipping or currently in development\u201d, said Alereon CEO David Shoemaker. \u201cOur small footprint wireless modules are an excellent choice for the military\u2019s expandable wireless personal area network.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alereon\u2019s technology supports high bandwidth, real-time communication for video, but can be scaled down to offer low power connectivity for low-speed devices. The ISW network supports a mix of video devices, audio devices, sensors, docks, and custom solutions all connected with guaranteed bandwidth up to 300Mbps. \u201cWe have regularly been adding new capabilities from off-body radio connectivity, real-time audio and video, and low power hibernating devices, just to name a few\u201d, said Alereon VP Engineering David Nix. \u201cAs the eco-system grows, we are finding more and more applications that can be added to the ISW network in a quick and seamless manner. We provide a variety of support tools that can turn most wired connections into wireless connections in a matter of days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Alereon, Inc. is the world-wide leader in UWB solutions that create high-throughput, low power, low-latency links for military, commercial, and medical technology.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tab-pane   clearfix\" id=\"t2Tab\">\n<div id=\"ut-accordion-parent-2\" class=\"ut-accordion\"><div class=\"ut-accordion-group\">\n<div class=\"ut-accordion-heading \"><a data-parent=\"#ut-accordion-parent-2\" class=\"accordion-toggle  active\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#accordion2\">PEO Soldier's Enhanced Night-Vision Goggle - Binocular (ENVG-B)<\/a><\/div><div id=\"accordion2\" class=\"ut-accordion-body collapse in\"><div class=\"ut-accordion-inner entry-content clearfix\">\n<p>The ENVG-B integrates Intra-Soldier Wireless (ISW).
