COMMBATT provides power and back-up for bi-directional amplifiers (BDA) and other critical system components. This unit monitors a wide range of internal supervisory conditions, as well as BDA health. An optional annunciator facilitates remote status monitoring.
First responder radio coverage
Auxiliary Radio Communications Enhancement Systems (ARCS) are mandated in New York City buildings over 75 feet tall to ensure in-building first responder radio coverage in the event of an emergency or crisis. Across the country, public safety codes and mandates require that facilities are equipped with Emergency Responder Communications Enhancement Systems (ERCES) that enable communications between first responders in and around buildings during emergency situations.
