<p>Maneuver element communications can be divided into Single-Channel Voice, Data Networks, and Telephony. Classified computer networks, such as SIPRNET are pushed to Infantry and Artillery Battalions via the EPLRS radio system. However, telephone services may or may not be supported due to limited availability of Multi-Channel Digital assets. Single-Channel Radio is utilized to communicate with higher, adjacent and subordinate organizations. While this is a sufficient means of communications, it is half-duplex, cumbersome, unreliable, and subject to availability due to net traffic. Voice over IP may be the solution to deploy full duplex telephone communications services to bandwidth deprived organizations, via an existing wireless network infrastructure. The development and testing of a software based \"VoIPNET\" prototype proved the EPLRS Network's ability to provide critical primary telephone services, via VoIP, to highly mobile maneuver elements. Detailed requirements analysis and design specifications were developed for future development of the VoIPNET application. In addition, the results of VoipNET Prototype tests on an EPLRS network are compiled into deployment recommendations for units attempting to establish VoIP on an EPLRS network.
