Module description
The KVL 3000 Plus is a portable key distribution device. Encryption keys can be loaded into the KVL manually through its keypad interface or transferred from a Key Management Facility through its serial interface. These keys can then be distributed to various secure communications equipment such as mobile and portable radios, base stations, zone controllers, data controllers, and other fixed network devices. The KVL also includes a PCMCIA interface for software upgrades.
