Repeaters can be used to overcome geographical features that obstruct radio communications or to extend coverage to communicate over greater distances. This increases the ability of portable and mobile radio users to communicate with each other or back to the base station.

Codan repeaters are available in analog or P25 digital configurations. In analog mode, the repeater can be configured for either wideband 1 or narrowband operation. CTCSS or DCS operation, as well as selectable de- and pre- emphasis or flat audio can be set in the receiver and transmitter modules.

P25 repeaters can operate in analog, P25 digital or mixed mode (mixed mode means retransmitting whatever mode is received). In P25 digital mode, the repeater will pass all clear and secure (encrypted) P25 digital information.

Codan are renowned for their reliable and durable repeaters as not only can they withstand extreme environments, their modules are hot swappable ensuring easy configuration and maintenance in any situation.
