Integrated Power, Data, and Accessory Management for FAST Helmet Systems
The OPS-CORE RAILINK® Power & Data ARC Rails form the backbone of a scalable, next-generation headborne ecosystem. Delivering seamless power and data integration through a single source, RAILINK eliminates the need for multiple batteries and tangled cables—enhancing mobility, balance, and mission endurance.
Developed with direct input from U.S. Military operators, this system redefines efficiency and reliability for tactical professionals who demand peak performance in the field.
Integrated Power & Data
Dedicated circuits deliver dependable power and high-bandwidth data to your VAS/NVG and accessory systems—all from a single source. Simplify your setup while maintaining full operational capability.
Smart Node Architecture
Accessories attach via a network of Smart Nodes, providing both mechanical connection and electronic power/data transfer. This modular design reduces failure points and streamlines helmet configuration.
Universal NVG Interface
The RAILINK VAS/NVG interface supports a wide range of night vision systems, including advanced fused-thermal models requiring both power and data. Internal cable routing minimizes snag hazards and eliminates the need for external battery leads.
Seamless System Connectivity
Using an intelligent communications protocol, RAILINK routes power and data node-to-node and through the Battery Pack+, enabling real-time data sharing between accessories and across other soldier systems.
FAST Helmet Compatibility
Fully backward and forward compatible with all OPS-CORE FAST High Cut Helmet Systems. Integrates effortlessly with existing helmet setups and accessories.
Reduced Bulk & Operator Fatigue
With all accessories powered directly from the rail system, weight is minimized and components can be mounted closer to the helmet’s center of gravity—reducing neck strain and fatigue during long missions.
Maximized Space & Simplicity
Mounting outside the standard ARC rail dovetail track frees up valuable space for additional accessories. A single power source simplifies logistics and eliminates the need for multiple battery types.
To mount your RAILINK Power & Data ARC Rails to your FAST Helmet System, you will need the Ballistic Hardware Kit (sold separately).
RAILINK isn’t just another accessory—it’s the power and data backbone of the modern headborne system. Lightweight, rugged, and mission-proven, it’s built to deliver unmatched performance and connectivity in any operational environment.
