Using the 117G to stream video works very well. Have used it several times, both LOS and BLOS. The video server from Harris doens't work very well. In fact, even with help from Harris field reps and their own engineers, we could not get the Harris server to work. We used a rugged mini server from another company that worked very well and did not require a network engineer to program like the sever from Harris. The 117G sucks batteries and has a long boot up time. We used a battery adapter that remoted the BA-5590, had an internal zero-wait switch and allowed us to connect a new battery before disconnecting the old battery.
The Persistant Systems radios also worked very well, especially in buildings. Much better (reliability, throughput) than Harris ANW2. They are power hogs, the adapter cable to use BA-5590s was very helpfull.
The SRW waveform is very similar in capability and function as the proprietary ANW2 stuff from Harris. I have used it a couple of times and passed allot of data with it. I think SRW is going to be added to more radios. Would be great if all the radios in the rucksack could share a common large pipe architecture without being locked into Harris only ANW2 like we were with HPW prior to PDA-184.
