Fern Communications manufacturers the FRX, the world’s first portable repeater designed for use in potentially explosive environments. Oil and gas installations are prone to communications shadows caused by steel and concrete structures. Communications shadows wreak havoc with radio signals and interrupt the flow of vital voice and data communications. The FRX effectively bends radio signals around the structures, eliminating communications shadows, increasing productivity, reducing costs and improving health and safety.

With offices in Lowestoft (South North Sea) and Aberdeen (Central and North-North Sea) and a world wide customer base, Fern Communications specialises in the supply of radio communications equipment to the up-stream oil and gas industry. Fern’s waterproof intrinsically safe hand held radios, headsets and speaker/mics compliment the FRX making a highly competitive package.
