Our range of LMR transportable repeaters for VHF, UHF, 700 MHz, 800 MHz frequency bands, are ideal for the Humanitarian market. Rapidly deployable and rugged, with low power consumption, they provide a quick and reliable communications solution when on the move.
In the humanitarian HF market, Codan’s Envoy smart radio provides fast, simple and reliable voice communications in places that have no other means of communication, or where telecommunications infrastructure has been destroyed. Our reputation as the brand of choice in the humanitarian market is such that “a Codan” is often used to describe an HF transceiver in the developing world.
