SANDRA

Flexible radio communications monitoring

 

SANDRA from Combitech is a modular, distributed and scalable narrowband radio communications monitoring software suite. It provides operators with full manual control, supports tens of concurrent operators with various roles and provides tasking function for autonomous operation.

With SANDRA, operators are able to monitor thousands of channels remotely across large geographical areas simultaneously. The intuitive user experience makes SANDRA quick to learn and easy to use.

Extensive integration capabilities into multiple systems using standard interfaces guarantees that the solution is easy to set up in existing environments. Through our partner network, we can also provide SANDRA as a fully featured system.

Modernize your solution

SANDRA is a modular, distributed and scalable narrowband radio communications monitoring software suite that easily adapts to your existing hardware infrastructure and sub systems.

With SANDRA, you get a modern experience, with tools and automated functions designed for ease and streamline of operators’ workload. It integrates with infrastructure to control and utilize integrated sub systems and resources.

It supports our partner network’s products out of the box and comes with standard and well-documented interfaces, and our experts are at hand to integrate any supported equipment.

SANDRA works seamlessly with your hardware and features a powerful software architecture. The UI has been carefully crafted with years of experience from designing systems for professional military use.


Grows with your operations

With SANDRA you can start your operations easily and cost-efficiently. The solution is modular, and grows with your operations. SANDRA integrates with receivers, from low-cost SDR receivers to high-end radio receivers.

The software scales from a single laptop and external radio to a nationwide system with tens of distributed sensor sites each with hundreds of receivers and thousands of channels.

Based on the same design principles as the other solutions, the basic delivery provides support for commonly used analogue demodulations such as AM, FM etc. Also, our partner-collection of demodulators and decoders and development framework enables you to build your own custom solutions.

In addition to scaling the SANDRA software suite, our partner network opens up a significant hardware portfolio that grows with your operations.
