Barrett Communications sells radios to US security agencies

Perth’s Barrett Communications has won a number of orders to supply HF and VHF radio communication systems to US government agencies involved in national security.

Barrett Communications USA Corp. will supply the Barrett 4050 HF SDR transceiver (pictured) in high power (BC4075) and medium to low power base stations, mobile vehicle configurations and transportable cases for rapid deployment.

Barrett’s products and systems provide communications where traditional communications do not exist and where satellite or terrestrial coverage is compromised.

A key application of the Barrett receiver systems is deployment for polar security missions and energy independence requirements.

The company will configure the systems with built in control of each agencies’ existing Advanced Digital Encryption devices.

Barrett CEO Andrew Burt said: “Working together with Royal Communications International, Inc., we have secured several new contracts with US Government agencies for projects that are of importance to national security.

“We have made specific product enhancements to suit the US federal market over the last year and we are seeing the results of our work.

“We are expecting requirements from these agencies to grow significantly, as we continue to support these agencies whenever and wherever they need us.”
