Public Safety Distributed Antenna Systems (ERCES/ERRCS)

The RATH® Fiber Public Safety DAS ensures high-performance signal distribution for critical communication needs in large buildings and campuses, capable of covering various combinations of 700, 800, UHF, VHF and FirstNet in a single system. Fiber-optic technology ensures minimal signal loss over long distances. The advanced filtering technology ensures that communication over any and all public safety bands are transmitted with clarity and reliability, making this a go-to solution for large buildings requiring robust, uninterrupted communication. The RATH® Fiber Public Safety DAS is designed for scalability and is field-upgradable.

The RATH® Passive Public Safety DAS offers a cost-effective and space-saving solution for any building that needs to support multiple public safety frequency bands for various emergency response services. Combinations of 700, 800, UHF, VHF and FirstNet can be configured in just a single cabinet. Advanced filtering technology delivers strong, clear signals, even in challenging environments, offering an excellent balance of performance and cost-effectiveness for less demanding applications. The system is designed for scalability and is field-upgradable.

The SAFE-1050 is the first-ever system to include a BDA and an integrated battery backup unit in a single cabinet, creating the most compact and efficient public service DAS solution on the market. AVAILABLE FOR ORDER STARTING SEPTEMBER 1, 2025! Using the signature Safe-Com plug-in card system, the innovative SAFE-1050 supports single band configurations of 700 or 800 bands and dual-band (700/800) configurations. The unit’s proprietary super-heterodyne front end, along with digital Class A filtering, significantly improves the system’s ability to handle strong and weak signals simultaneously (near-far performance) and handles interlaced frequencies with ease. The unit uses a state-of-the-art, lightweight lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery pack, complete with cell balancing technology and built-in monitoring to prevent overcharge and over-discharge, all designed to extend the life of the battery. This all-in-one system was designed to require the least amount of time, effort and physical space to install. The system can be expanded or modified with ease over time. UL2524 certified, meets NFPA 1221/1225 | FCC ID: 2AKSM-SAFE5 * Pair with the Safe-Com remote annunciator.

The Safe-Com battery backup unit features our state-of-the-art Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) battery technology, designed to enhance performance and be lighter in weight and more compact than traditional batteries. The battery system monitors and prevents both overcharge and over-discharge of the batteries, with overcurrent protection and cell-balancing circuitry to extend the life of the batteries. In the case of an outage, the integrated AC power supply offers a smooth transition from AC power to battery power. The new battery technology is less likely to overheat versus legacy battery options, and this innovative design features no outgassing, low self-discharge, and no memory effect. These batteries are also more environmentally friendly than traditional alternatives as they do not contain cobalt or other toxic chemicals found in lead-acid or lithium-ion batteries. UL2524 certified, meets NFPA 1221/1225

The Safe-Com remote annunciator features LED and audible alerts for code-required alarms with additional form-C relays for external connections. A single CAT5 cable is provided to deliver power from the BDA. LEDs are tested using a magnet/magnetic switch that cycles the LEDs through their colors with a quick tap. Users can temporarily mute the audible alarms for 24 hours during install, testing or maintenance by holding the magnet over the magnetic switch for 5 seconds. This does not prevent new alarms from sounding. Meets NFPA 1221/1225 requirements
