Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. has announced significant engineering advancements in its mobile communications platforms with the release of NX-20 and NX-24 models, designed to support critical operations across defense, border security, surveillance, and mining sectors. The company's engineering team has extended the operational height of its Nexus Rapid Deployment Base Station to over 20 meters through stakeholder collaboration in Australia and Europe.
The NX-20 model can lift up to 100kg of payload equipment to a new height of 20m, while an optional extension allows antennas to reach 24m, substantially expanding the system's transmission range. On flat terrain, the NX-20 can now transmit to a network node up to 18.4km away, reducing the impact of tree cover and built environments on network effectiveness. These improvements create new opportunities for mobile, flexible, and resilient communications in challenging environments.
Brenton Scott, CEO of CiTech, emphasized that "height is the most important factor in network reliability and flexibility. With the NX-20 and NX-24, CiTech continues to push the boundaries of operational capability, providing our partners with next-generation solutions for mission-critical communications." The engineering milestones include further development of CiTech's patented deployment mechanism to increase load capacity while maintaining core mechanical principles.
The addition of a second trapezoidal screw drive enhances deployment stability, with collateral benefits also improving the weight capacity of the NX-16 model. CiTech has integrated support for VTOL fixed-wing surveillance drones, extending effective Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance coverage for defense and security applications. Scott added that "our focus is on delivering robust, versatile systems that adapt to the evolving needs of our customers. The NX-20 and NX-24 demonstrate CiTech's commitment to innovation in critical infrastructure and communications."
These advancements address critical limitations in rapidly deployable communication solutions, particularly tower strength and rapid self-deployment capabilities. The systems are designed to support radio equipment including LTE and various technology payloads such as surveillance and anti-drone systems.
