Radio Solutions, Inc. (RSI), a pioneer in Emergency Responder Communication Enhancement Systems (ERCES), is the first manufacturer to receive UL certification to the latest (3rd) Edition of the UL 2524 Standard for its innovative M5 Series ERCES Bi-Directional Amplifier (BDA) Platform. This significant achievement highlights RSI's ongoing commitment to providing superior products that enhance safety and communication reliability for First Responders who operate in critical environments.
RSI was the first manufacturer to receive a BDA UL Listing back in June 2018 after it funded and initialized the development of the UL 2524 Outline of Investigation, and today RSI is the first to receive UL 2524 Certification under the latest 3rd Edition of the Standard. The M5 Series BDA Platform is the only one capable of operating on any Public Safety frequency band, in either FCC Class A or Class B, with medium- or high-power options, all within a single fully integrated enclosure that includes battery backup. RSI's M5 platform is compatible with both passive DAS and fiber DAS systems, ensuring limitless coverage capacity for buildings of any size and multi-building campus applications.
The Importance of the UL 2524 Standard
Purchasing & deploying a UL 2524 Listed and Certified BDA provides building owners, building occupants, and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) assurance of:
- Product Compliance: meets and exceeds the latest codes & standards and current regulatory requirements,
- Product Safety: ensures safe operation in the most challenging environments,
- Product Reliability: rigorously tested under extreme conditions to guarantee consistent code-compliant performance in the most adverse environmental conditions.
UL 2524 Listing is required in the latest editions of IBC, IFC, NFPA 1, and NFPA 1225, making RSI's M5 BDA Platform the most future-proof solution available on the market.
"From being the first manufacturer to receive a UL 2524 Product Certification in 2018, to today, being the first to receive 3rd Edition UL 2524 certification, RSI underscores its ongoing commitment to leading the industry in safety and reliability for emergency communication systems. Our US-made products meet the highest industry standards, providing First Responders with the support they need to save lives effectively," said Admir Surkovic, CEO/CTO of Radio Solutions, Inc.
