The Voyager Chassis is a critical component when rapidly deploying mission-ready systems to austere environments at the Tactical Edge.<\/p>\n

The Voyager Chassis comes in many form factors to suit the needs of different operations at the Tactical Edge. However, they all have one thing in common: They are designed rugged to protect and safely distribute power, including battery backup, for the modules and radios inserted into the chassis.<\/p>\n

Rugged chassis construction<\/b><\/p>\n

The purpose of the Voyager Chassis is to protect, power and actively cool the inserted Voyager modules and radios. Therefore, the chassis itself is constructed to withstand extreme handling conditions, such as being dropped, kicked and knocked, jumped upon, or continuously rattled.<\/p>\n

“Some companies adapt their network, compute, storage solutions to meet the MIL-STD-810 ruggedized specs. Good on them. Klas builds to meet the rugged operator\u2019s mission requirements BEFORE it\u2019s put in a case. If you can\u2019t jump it, drop it and kick it, it\u2019s not rugged.” <\/span><\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Design and construction are key to the chassis’ strength. Constructed of aluminum sheet metal, the chassis is designed to be strong and corrosion-resistant. When it comes to protecting the modules, the chassis ensures against any movement of the modules. This is achieved using milled aluminum latches on the outside and guide rails and locking mechanisms on the inside.<\/p>\n
