The MRS-6 System is a tactical communications and computational platform for rugged deployments. It implements a single high availability system architecture across all hardware and software layers.

This enables typical equipment manufacturers to efficiently execute a wide variety of applications that require high speed communication and computationally dense systems, such as advanced methods of dispersion analysis, high-end vision interpretation/identification, aural detection and identification, RF spectrum analysis, locational detection, cryptanalysis, virtual threat identification and dispersion, and probability analysis. The MRS-6 can also be used in WiMAX, IMS Applications, Virtualization, IPTV, Radio Network Controlling, Datacenter/Network Operations, Security and Traffic Handling, Computational Clustering, Transcoding and encoding processes in rugged environments.

The MRS-6 represents cost savings, and reduced total cost of ownership can be realized on multiple levels ranging from more efficient design, harmonized logistics, and less training to cost savings due to volume deployment and respective lower unit pricing effects for high end computer systems.
