Welcome to TACCCO, the TaCtical Communications COmpany).
We are a UK based radio communication business. The key services we provide include:
BESPOKE COMMUNICATIONS PACKAGES
1: Bespoke communications and asset tracking for events and outdoor activities. We can provide not only radios but also a means to track people, vehicles or other assets. We can link radio systems to the internet so that an event HQ can be in one place while the main event is elsewhere. Or we can provide a mobile phone app that can be used to dial in to a combined phone and radio network. We can extend radio coverage into hard to reach locations with repeaters and remote radio nodes. We can provid tailored systems for marathons and other races, long distance hikes or walks, motoring events, film and TV production, cross country events and many others.
RADIO HIRE
2: Radio hire and rental. Short term and long term hire of professional digital radios with secure speech as well as analog hand helds and mobile radios. We can also provide repeaters, base stations, GPS trackers or radios with built in GPS.
CUSTOM RADIO BUILDS
3: Custom radio builds. We can create customised radio equipment to suit different needs. From headsets for use in bad weather to radio systems for events we can built the equipment you need.
We can provide traditional radio communications including secure digital communications as well as a number of GPS based tracking devices or GPS equiped radios to track personnel, vehicles or other assets in real time. We can also establish a radio based messaging network similar to email or SMS but not dependant on the internet or other fixed infrastructure such as a cell phone network, so this system can work in the remotest of areas or disaster areas. We can expand and connect radio networks to the Internet so that calls can be made between radios and mobile phones.
SECURE, ENCRYPTED RADIOS – Keep your infromation safe.
We have a large number of secure encrypted radios suitable for use in any situation where sensitive or personal information may need to be sent via radio. We have Motorola radios with ARC4 encryption, a secure encryption system that would require some significant effort to decode. If you need an even greater degree of security we also have Motorola and other digital radios with AES encryption. AES 256 bit encryption is extremely secure military grade encryption and is generally considered to be un-crackable. These are popular on film and TV productions, for security applications or medical users, anywhere where sensitive information or personnal details may need to be transmitted.
REPEATERS AND INTERNET LINKING.
A repeater can be used as a high power bridge between lower powered radios such as handhelds to extend the range and coverage of a radio network. In addition a repeater can be connected to the internet and then linked to a remote location. This can be useful for events where the headquarters is some distance from the area where the radio network is required, allowing the HQ area to connect to the main radio net. We have a number of different repeater options including the very latest single frequency digital systems that allow the addition of a repeater in an existing digital radio network. This avoids down time. In an emergency scenario users can start using their digital radios for direct communication and then a single frequency repeater (SFR) can be introduced at any time without interrupting the existing radio traffic. The SFR can then be linked to the internet and other SFR’s or conventional repeaters to further extend the network.
PROPS FOR FILM AND TELEVISION.
Additionally we can provide military style radios, dummy radios and radio accessories for use as props in film and television production. We have a good range of replicas of current military radios along with associated items such as headset. Please use the contact form for more details.
