RECORDER OPTIONS: SOL4DVR
The Cobham Surveillance MicroVue is a 
briefcase receiver/recorder package for tactical 
video surveillance operations. Additionally, it 
can be used as a remote video receiver for UAV 
and UGV applications.
The MicroVue combines a Cobham SOLO 
Receiver with two diversity down-converters 
and two antennae into one rapidly-deployable 
briefcase kit. An 8.4” colour LCD screen is 
mounted in the lid, while a comprehensive 
touch screen control panel is supplied for 
control and set up.
The MicroVue has domo technology at its 
core and is supplied with AC, DC and internal 
battery power. For unusual installations, the 
internal antennae and down-converters can 
be bypassed and external ones fitted instead. 
As standard, the MicroVue is supplied without 
a recorder, but can optionally be fitted with an 
FFV based hard disk recorder, or an alternative 
(available on request). 
The Cobham Surveillance narrow bandwidth 
modulation offers unprecedented spectrum 
efficiency, while also increasing the system 
sensitivity and, therefore, range. Security of 
transmission is ensured by the use of Standard 
ABS encryption or optional AES128- or 256-bit 
encryption algorithms.
