at 25 kHz or 12.5 kHz bandwidth depending on the part number that is ordered.

The Guardian wireless modem can operate in the VHF, 200 MHz, UHF, and 900 MHz frequency bands. The radio will

operate at 25 kHz or 12.5 kHz of bandwidth. The user can select the operating mode by using the Guardian FPS (Field

The Guardian and T-96SR are over-the-air (OTA) compatible. The Guardian will be configured through the FPS to match

the parameters of the existing T-96SR system.
