The
Submarine Workstation (SWS) variant AN/UYQ-70 is an integrated
equipment and software group, functionally replacing the OJ-172 (DEAC).
The SWS is intended for use as the Data Processing Subsystem/Data
Storage System (DPS/DSS) Workstation and Monitoring Subsystem (MS)
Workstation on Trident Class Submarines (SSBN) and as the Data Storage
System (DSS) for 688 Class Attack Submarines (SSN). The SWS
configuration uses standard Q-70 modules and components built on a
flexible commercial off-the-shelf (COTS)-based open system
architecture and housed in an air-cooled enclosure. Connectivity is
provided by multiple topologies, including MIL-STD 1397 Naval Tactical
Data Standard (NTDS) interface. Upgrading the connectivity is only a
matter of changing the interface card, cable, and aoftware driver. The
console is equipped with the Q-70 standard suite of operating,
development, and maintenance software.
