Our History

RCA Communication Systems: There in the beginning, still here today.

The field of communications technology rapidly advanced over the course of the previous century and few of the big names of those early days maintained the name recognition and longevity into this new, twenty-first century. The Radio Corporation of America (RCA) is one name that did. It’s positioned at the top of a short list of industry greats that has endured through time and continued to evolve over a revolutionary century of technology. RCA is known worldwide for its commitment to serving the needs of the communications market with unsurpassed durability and reliability.
RCA has long understood its customer’s need for communication devices that can perform even under the harshest of work environments: the first RCA radios were designed to withstand military purposes in wartime, combat conditions. As communication technology expanded beyond governmental and military use to a population of consumers welcoming and eager for technological advancement, RCA was the dominant industry leader. The name became synonymous with groundbreaking, trendsetting, communication innovation.

RCA Communication Systems: Reliable quality, superior performance.

When two-way radio communication was in its infancy, RCA recognized a need and created products that changed how we do business, interact with each other, address emergencies, and broadcast information. Nearly 100 years later there’s a new spin on this same need: reinvent value in a reliable product that consumers and businesses can trust.

RCA Communication Systems listens when you speak.

RCA is returning to the forefront of the two-way radio market to solve the problems their competitors caused by using unreliable or poor quality parts, insufficient repair warranties, and low life batteries. RCA is different than other companies: rather than attempt to dictate the market and tell buyers what they should want, RCA first listens to what problems the buying market needs a solution for and designs an innovative product that answers that need. Integrated, cost-effective solutions have been the nexus of RCA’s product line across the decades.
