STAR-PAN system software offers microprocessor controlled power management as well as firmware-controlled power management via SPAR (STAR-PAN Android Remote) and WASP (Windows Application STAR-PAN) apps. These two open system applications deliver seamless integration with Android- and Windows-based End User Devices. An additional STAR-PAN app, the ATAK plugin, integrates STAR-PAN battery and power management directly into ATAK (Android Tactical Assault Kit), the leading DACAS software application used by the JTAC community. Familiar touch-screen controls and easy-to-read graphical user interface allows soldiers in the field to quickly and easily view and manage port priority, charge state, and system battery state for the STAR-PAN system and all interconnected peripherals.

The STAR-PAN™ MISSION MANAGER provides a plug-and-play bridge between the soldier’s End User Device (EUD) and the C4ISR peripherals they depend on for mission success.  MISSION MANAGER is a Linux OS ARM-based embedded computing device that acts as a full-time host, brokering data between soldier USB peripherals and the EUD. In combination with Stauder Technologies’ user-configurable MX application software, the STAR-PAN™ MISSION MANAGER makes connecting multiple devices to any EUD—before, during, or between missions—easier than ever before.

• End User Device independent—no device rooting, or custom ROM images needed
• Real-time, plug-and-play device integration
• Supports multiple simultaneous Ethernet devices
• Dedicated EUD port for connection to downstream EUD
• Minimal power demands
• Seamless integration into STAR-PAN systems
• NATO standard Mighty Mouse connector interface
• Mission Manager MX software Android, iOS, Windows and Linux compatible
• Export classification EAR99

Integration of soldier C4ISR capabilities on an existing fleet of land, air, and maritimeplatforms is proving to be a challenge for many NATO members. STAR-PAN™ NG X 10-Port Base Station is a next-generation multi-port data and power hub for platform-based soldier power and C4ISR integration. STAR-PAN NG X 10-port Base Station supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 high-speed data rates and 8 Amp power delivery. This allows soldiers to directly connect portable soldier power and data systems to the transportation platform’s network for charging and data sharing—enabling soldier access to latest BMS information while transporting in a vehicle, helicopter, or vessel.

The principal benefit here is ongoing enhancement of soldier situational awareness as well as critical charging of unit batteries. STAR-PAN NG X incorporates an embedded MISSION MANAGER with upgraded processing power enabling it to act as a tactical

edge computing device running any Battlefield Management System (BMS). STAR-PAN NG X incorporates all STAR-PAN standard features as well as next-generation Universal Power Ports, an expanded capability Host / EUD port, and full support for USB 3.2 Gen 1 peripherals.

Integrated Soldier Power / Data Hubs are Personal Area Network (PAN) hub and interconnect systems providing network data access, peripheral connectivity and smart battery power management for dismounted soldier C4ISR electronics in Digitally Aided Close Air Support (DACAS) missions, including precision targeting, tactical radio communications, real-time video downlink, night vision technologies, GPS/navigation, blue force tracking, personal computing and smart phone integration.

Core capabilities of a soldier-worn PAN hub may include:

• Ethernet networking
• USB compatible peripheral support
• Software-defined radio support
• Common interconnect interface
• Charging and battery power management

Ruggedized soldier-worn electronics have revolutionized mission effectiveness. But the evolution of integrated C4ISR technology for the Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) has added significant mission weight to the soldier ensemble. Battery power management for this broad range of integrated electronic gear is a significant challenge in terms of mission time, weight and supply logistics.

The Glenair integrated STAR-PAN™ soldier data hub and power distribution system enables soldiers to make the most of Personal Area Network (PAN) devices – improving situational awareness, surveillance, intelligence and reconnaissance.

Glenair JTAC-Tough™ STAR-PAN™ technologies optimize power monitoring, conditioning, and distribution performance with on-board smart power management for longer missions and lighter loads. Importantly, all STAR-PAN™ technologies, from the high-density Glenair Mighty Mouse quick-disconnect connectors and cables to the low-profile hub enclosure itself are designed for optimal size and weight reduction as well as ruggedized mil-spec caliber and battle-tested environmental and EMC sealing and shielding.
