PCN Flyaway Kit · Deployable private cellular

Your portable private 5G tower.

Bring your own private LTE/5G coverage to remote sites, with a portable tower, Sapphire radio and core, and satellite backhaul. Deploy in hours, connect authorized devices, then pack and redeploy when the operation moves.

01 — THE KIT

Three cases. One private network.

Tower, radio and core, satellite backhaul: the building blocks of your own private cellular network, packed for transport. DHI provides the network and ongoing operations support.

Portable mast erected in the fieldCase 01

Tower Kit

Portable mast, antenna and mounting hardware establish your private coverage area at the deployment site.

Open transit case with LTE/5G radio equipmentCase 02

Radio Kit

LTE/5G radio and the Sapphire core platform — the private network in a single transit case.

LEO satellite terminal deployed on the groundCase 03

Satellite Kit

LEO satellite backhaul connects the site onward without an existing local mobile tower or fiber line.

Time to service

Unpack. Configure. Activate. The Sapphire platform in three transit cases, with hours to service and 24/7 Global NOC support.

02 — CAPABILITIES

Private coverage without a permanent build

Your own tower and private access network, with satellite backhaul for remote sites. Site power, radio coverage and satellite placement are planned for the deployment.

How it connectsBring the private network with you.

Your private cellular network · Authorized access only

01 — Your devicesData · Voice · IoT

Approved SIMs and eSIMs connect compatible devices to your network.

02 — Your infrastructurePortable tower + Sapphire core

Private LTE/5G coverage, device authentication and traffic policies operated by DHI.

03 — Beyond the siteSatellite backhaul

LEO satellite connects the site onward without an existing local mobile tower or fiber line.

Site power and a suitable satellite view are part of deployment planning. Voice services, device support and traffic routing follow the agreed network configuration.

C1Operational in hoursThe same Sapphire platform in three transit cases, with hours to service and 24/7 Global NOC support.
C2Same Sapphire platformSame governance, policy engine, app, and SIM identity. The platform you'd run permanently, in a case.
C3Your own private coverageThe tower and radio create a private access network for authorized devices. No existing public mobile tower or fixed fiber connection is needed; site power is part of the deployment plan.
C4Satellite backhaul built inSatellite provides the onward connection where supported service and a suitable sky view are available. Local public mobile coverage is not required for the private network.
C5Fully redeployableThe mission relocates; the kit moves with it. Same identities, no re-enrollment.
03 — WHERE IT DEPLOYS

Coverage before infrastructure exists

Use case 01

Temporary bases

Early-entry sites can establish governed coverage before permanent infrastructure is available.

Use case 02

Training & ranges

Remote and dispersed areas get governed mobile service without a permanent build.

Use case 03

Surge & contingency

When infrastructure is disrupted, the Flyaway Kit replaces it in hours — not weeks.

Use case 04

Forward support

Contractors and support missions get governed access with proper segmentation.

04 — SECURITY

The same posture — in the field.

Identity-based access, traffic segmentation, and separation from DoD mission systems — from day one, on day-one infrastructure.

Governing principle

Expeditionary doesn't mean exempt.

The kit enforces the same policy engine as a permanent installation. Every connection is authenticated, segmented, and visible to the operator from the first hour of service.

F1 Identity-based access

SIM/eSIM authentication from the first connection. Access granted, changed, or revoked centrally — even in the field.

F2 Segmentation

Distinct traffic domains for personnel, contractors, and support missions — each with its own policy, from day one.

F3 Mission-system separation

Physically and logically separate from DoD mission networks. Personal traffic never routes across NIPR, SIPR, or other mission systems.

05 — KIT VS. PERMANENT

Deploy the kit. Scale the installation.

Two form factors, one platform. The kit deploys today; the permanent PCN scales the installation — with no re-enrollment.

06 — DEPLOYMENT

Unpack. Connect. Redeploy.

PHASE 01

Arrive & site check

Position the cases, confirm power and placement for mast and satellite terminal.

PHASE 02

Stand up the radio

Erect the mast, mount the antenna, and bring the LTE/5G radio online.

PHASE 03

Activate core & policy

Sapphire core up, segmentation and traffic policy enforced from the first connection.

PHASE 04

Enroll users

SIM/eSIM profiles issued; users connect the same day with the standard Sapphire app.

OPERATIONS

Managed from day one

DHI's Global NOC monitors the Flyaway Kit 24/7 — remote management, real-time alarms, and fault isolation. Deployment responsibilities are agreed during site planning.

07 — COVERAGE PLANNING

Coverage designed for your deployment

The kit creates a private cellular coverage area around its tower. DHI defines that area for your site and equipment, rather than applying a generic tower radius.

P1Coverage areaRadio frequency, antenna configuration and mast height determine the starting design. Terrain, buildings and other obstructions affect the area that can be served.
P2Devices & capacityPlan for the number of users, supported devices and the data, voice or IoT applications they need. Coverage reach and available capacity are separate requirements.
P3Power & backhaulSize the power arrangement for the deployed equipment and operating period. Position the satellite terminal with the required sky view and confirm the service plan.
P4Deployment readinessConfirm the site, crew, equipment configuration and operating requirements before mobilization, then validate coverage and service during commissioning.
