Software Defined Radio Solutions
Orion’s Next Gen Radio System
Our Software Defined Radio (SDR) solutions merge traditional radios, dispatch consoles, radio over IP ready devices, VoIP telephony & PTT intercom into one complete communication platform. Our solutions are for real world radio applications. Not for the hobbyist.
- Customizable
- Cost Effective
- Scalable
- Engineered in the USA
SDR Radio Software Customized for Your Needs
Orion Systems unifies radio dispatch, IP telephony, operator-to-operator intercom into a single, modern platform. Operators work from a clean, touch-friendly screen, with a powerful engine handling every transmission, mix, and patch in real time. Get millisecond responsiveness on demand. Our software solutions can connect modern RoIP radios and legacy analog gear using our RoIP gateways. Your teams can deploy without ripping and replacing the radios you already own. The same platform scales from a single dispatcher position to large multi-operator operations centers.

One Platform for Any Radio
Our SDR radio software integrates with most multi-channel radio transceivers used by DoD operators, air traffic controllers, and mission-critical groups around the globe. We also support public-safety and commercial deployments using land mobile radios.
Any radio can be brought online through the Orion RIP1 RoIP gateway at a fixed frequency. IP telephony built-in, radio-to-phone patching, conference calls, & cellular connections all from the same console.
Browser Based Consoles
Our solution works with your existing tablets, touchscreens, PC’s and mobile devices. Or we can preload operation stations that are ready to deploy when your team is ready. We use high quality factory-configured hardware and install the fully preloaded operator stations you have agreed to. You just plug in network and power, and the position is live.
Flexible Layouts
Get different configurations for the dispatcher, supervisor, trainee, watch officer, special-events controller, all within a single solution.
Per-position control over radio keys, talk groups, telephone lines, intercom paths, presets, and indicator placement. Layouts can be updated, swapped, or reassigned on the fly as missions change, shifts rotate, or new operators are trained.
Mix and Match The Capabilities You Require
Bridge any two or more circuits on the fly.
Connect a phone caller into a radio talk group.
Transmit on multiple selected circuits simultaneously.
Every operator position configured for the seat that uses it.
One-touch macros: presets, conditional actions.
Capture every transmission.
Built on Open Standards for military and civil ATC voice. Interoperable with any IP-PBX or Open RoIP audio. The Orion RIP1 G.711 is our RoIP gateway but we can customize your software for other RoIP interfaces if required. Encryption protocols keyed to your preferences.
