01 Jul 2016 Evaluate

HCL Infosystems has enabled the design, development and deployment of Defence Communication Network (DCN) - the first tri-Service communication and IT network of the Armed Forces. The network has been fully designed and developed in India.

The state-of-the-art, fully secure DCN is the largest single satellite network in the Indian Defense Forces, spread across the country. This integrated communication architecture between the Army, Navy and Air Force bolsters the prowess of the Defence forces during both critical operations and rescue missions. DCN is a major step towards ensuring Network Centricity across the three Services, IDS and SFC.

HCL Infosystems has had a long association with the Indian Defence sector. The company has closely worked with the Indian Air Force to deploy The Air Force Network (AFNet) and AFCEL (Air Force Cellular Network).   AFNet is the first network of its kind for Indian Defence Institutions, which interlinks major installations throughout the country on a high bandwidth network. It incorporates latest traffic transportation technology in the form of Internet Protocol.
