The SCU can handle multiple radios, with multiple channels. In such scenarios, the user is able to select one of three preset sound profiles:
Mix: Radio communication(s) are heard equally in both left and right ear.
Split: Radio communications will be spilt between the left and right ears.
Surround: The radio communications will be perceived as it is coming from different directions (10 o’clock or 2 o’clock) depending on which channel the radio is transmitted from.
Human-Machine Interface (HMI)
The SCU is designed to be integrated into the operator`s mission set of equipment

Wired or Wireless Headset Connection
In addition to an optional wired connection, TMAS lets you experience a secure, reliable cable-free connection between the SCU and headsets (both in-ear or overthe-ear). The SCU features proprietary automatic conflict resolution, which allows multiple users cordless communications in close proximity.
Near Field Magnetic Induction (NFMI)
Near Field Magnetic Induction is a short range, digital, wireless physical layer that communicates by coupling a tight, low power, non-propagating magnetic field between devices. The range is approximately 50 cm (20 in). The steep degradation of NFMI signal strength as a function of distance increases privacy and reduces issues with interference compared to traditional wireless technology. Spectral interference is reduced by a “channel hopping” algorithm incorporated into the TMAS suite.
Wireless Remote Switch
The SCU can be remotely operated via the RCU. Besides using the RCU as a PTT, it can also be used to adjust the volume level of the environmental listening or radio. Designed to be mounted on a picatinny rail, it can also placed elsewhere (i.e. steering wheel, second body location).
