3. Andromeda is the UK's only nationwide digital two-way radio
network, delivering clear and reliable group communications with
almost unlimited range - all from a small, rugged handportable
radio.
Our two-way radio service uses the mobile phone networks to
cover over 97% of the UK population and includes GPS tracking,
encrypted transmissions, selective calling and dispatch software
incorporating maps and satellite imagery.
With no hilltop radio sites to lease or expensive infrastructure to
install, no complicated Government frequency licencing or time
consuming radio programming you can buy or hire today and start
communicating with your team tomorrow.
If you need wide area two-way radios, choose Andromeda.

Everywhere You Go
On-Site Radio Extension
Enhance the range of your on-site analogue or digital
radios by interconnecting with the Andromeda network.
Roaming workers or centralised control rooms in remote
locations can use Andromeda to communicate with on-
site radios across multiple sites.
Enhanced Coverage Solutions
There are some places even the nationwide Andromeda
network cannot reach such as basements, tunnels and
underground car parks. Andromeda can supply
enhanced coverage solutions which extend the network
into those low signal areas.
European and International Roaming
When your workers cross national borders the
Andromeda network will follow. European and
international roaming options ensure instant
communications are maintained wherever your
customers need you.
