Radlink Communications

What Radlink Communications does

Radlink Communications is an Australian mission-critical communications technology integrator founded in 2007 in Western Australia and headquartered in Malaga, Perth. The company designs, builds, installs, sells, services, maintains, and rents end-to-end communication systems across two-way radio standards (TETRA, P25, DMR, analog), private LTE/4G/5G networks, microwave and wireless backhaul, SCADA and telemetry systems, integrated dispatch consoles, and fixed or relocatable infrastructure (towers up to 90 metres, transportable shelters, comms trailers). Its proprietary software layer, Revelocplus Core, ingests GPS, RSSI, and telemetry into an SQL database and runs a suite of rule-based applications (Speed Alert, Dynamic Blast Zone Alerts, RevWeatherWatch, Emergency Management). The company has also developed in-house hardware IP including the BVR5000 telemetry/SCADA controller and an Australian-manufactured genZ LFP (LiFePO4) battery brand.

Radlink's primary vertical is resources — mining, oil and gas — with named enterprise customers including BHP, Fortescue Metals Group, Rio Tinto, and Roy Hill. Secondary verticals include utilities, transportation, emergency services, construction, government and defence (including the Australian Department of Defence), and event management. The company operates a direct enterprise field sales motion supported by a 24/7 Australian-based Technical Assistance Centre and a national footprint spanning Western Australia, Queensland, South Australia, New South Wales, Victoria, and Tasmania, with 423 staff as of 2024 (grown organically from 4 in 2007).

Revenue is generated across four streams: product sales (hardware and integrated systems), equipment rental (short- and long-term hire of an 8,000+ radio fleet), managed services (LITE/STANDARD/PREMIUM support tiers with software, asset, and lifecycle management), and professional services (consultancy, system design, site surveys, 3D LIDAR modelling, installation, optical fibre, and training). All pricing is quote-based. The company is privately held and founder/management-owned with no external funding rounds; growth has been entirely organic. Certifications include ISO 9001, ISO 45001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001 (in progress), FSC accreditation, and ARCIA membership.

Direct peers

• Tait Communications: Tait Communications is a New Zealand-headquartered manufacturer and integrator of mission-critical radio communications (DMR, P25, analogue), serving utilities, public safety, transportation, and mining — the same verticals and technologies as Radlink. Both are independent, non-Motorola incumbent alternative integrators with similar product portfolio and customer overlap.
• Hytera: Hytera is a global DMR/TETRA/LTE radio vendor that competes directly with Radlink's product and integration portfolio across mining, utilities, and public safety. Radlink is a Hytera Platinum Partner, meaning both partnership and direct competition coexist in adjacent opportunities.
• Barrett Communications: Barrett Communications is an Australian designer and manufacturer of HF/VHF radio communications for government, defence, and resource sectors. It overlaps directly with Radlink in radio-based comms for mining, defence, and remote operations across the Australian market.
• Codan Communications: Codan Communications (part of Codan Limited) provides HF and VHF radio communications for mining, defence, and humanitarian customers with a strong Australian presence. Radlink and Codan compete for similar mission-critical comms spend in resources and government verticals.
• Simoco Wireless Solutions: Simoco is a UK-based provider of DMR/P25 radio networks and SCADA telemetry for utilities, mining, and transport. Radlink lists Simoco as a partner and competes with it on private radio and SCADA opportunities in the resources and utilities verticals.
• Sepura: Sepura is a UK-headquartered TETRA and LTE mission-critical radio vendor with strong mining, utilities, and public-safety footprints. Radlink is a long-standing Sepura Approved Repair Centre and partner, making Sepura both a supplier/partner and a competing solution in some bids.

Others

• Ericsson (Mission-Critical Networks): Ericsson provides private LTE/5G and mission-critical network infrastructure serving utilities, mining, ports, and industrial customers. It is an adjacent enabling technology provider rather than a direct radio-integrator competitor, and represents both a partner and a competing vendor in private cellular opportunities.

Broad incumbents

• L3Harris Technologies: L3Harris is a major US defence and communications vendor with a global installed base in tactical radio, mission-critical comms, and public-safety networks. Radlink is an Authorised Repair Centre for L3Harris, and L3Harris competes broadly in the same Australian defence/public-safety opportunities.
• Motorola Solutions: Motorola Solutions is the dominant global incumbent in mission-critical two-way radio (TETRA/P25/DMR), command-and-control, and video security for government, public safety, mining, and utilities. It competes head-on with Radlink's TETRA, P25, LTE, and managed-services offerings and has far greater scale and direct-sales reach.

Emerging players

• DAMM Cellular Systems: DAMM is a Danish provider of TETRA and LTE critical-communications infrastructure that Radlink integrates and partners with on customer deployments (e.g., DAMM TETRA network for RevWeatherWatch). It overlaps with Radlink on industrial TETRA/private LTE infrastructure projects.
