Small, rugged, and lightweight, the multi-band Microponder™ produces a field proven,
reliable beacon signal when interrogated by aircraft radar. The SMP2000 is the smallest and lightest multi-band radar transponder beacon available on the market today. It is the dual band extension of our single band version, the SMP1000. Its minimal power consumption and "off-the-shelf" battery ensure continuous peration for almost 24 hours (in receive mode). The SMP2000 provides a very cost-effective solution for any customer in need of a small, rugged, and long-lasting eacon that permits greater mobility and increased effectiveness in operations. Its simple and passive operation significantly enhances the security and survivability of the unit under adverse operating conditions.
