Public Safety Distributed Antenna Systems (ERCES/ERRCS)

Public Safety Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) are designed to improve emergency responder communication within buildings, especially in areas where traditional radio signals may be obstructed or weakened. These systems are critical for maintaining reliable communication for emergency personnel during critical incidents.

RATH® Public Safety DAS solutions ensure optimal radio signal coverage, improving safety for both occupants and responders by providing clear, uninterrupted communication. Our systems are specifically designed to amplify emergency responder radios, ensuring first responders can communicate effectively in challenging environments.

RATH® Public Safety DAS systems comply with UL, FCC and local fire and safety codes, ensuring they meet stringent standards for emergency communication systems and provide critical coverage in case of emergencies.
