Front panel of KY-58.
The VINSON KY-58 provides secure voice communication capabilities for U.S. Military Joint Services, NATO and law enforcement agencies who have access to bandwidth-restricted circuitry such as UHF and VHF satellite access and wideband switched telephone systems. It uses the 16 kbit/s continuously variable slope delta modulation (CVSD). The system was initially fielded as a replacement for the KG-36 and KG-34.
