Tuesday October 17, 2006 "Blackbox" could look great in olive drab...
While this appears to be pitched at "customers who have run out of space in their datacentre", it looks like it may also be a perfect fit for the military and intelligence communities:
- it's in an all-metal shipping container which will act as a Faraday cage, so it's reasonably EMP-hard and may approach TEMPEST requirements (I wonder if we'll test it?)
- if resilience to a 9G shock is considered "good enough to survive some rough handling in a battlefield environment", configure one of these "back home", hang it under a Chinook, deliver it to a field HQ, attach generator, ground microwave link and satellite uplink and you've got all the C4I capability you need right where you want it...
- for intelligence field operatives, lease a big garage / small warehouse to put one of these and some desks in, and run fibre from one of these to a bunch of SunRay 2FS units
