RipEX radio modems are also popular in Central America, where we have installations in Honduras, Guatemala, Costa Rica and Panama. Local power distributors have struggled with non-functioning radio networks in the difficult terrain of the Caribbean coast. Today several hundred of our RipEX radio modems are deployed to full satisfaction, most of them with cellular expansion cards. Read more about one of the references here.

Protocol on the Radio channel is the main parameter that determines the throughput of the overall network. Therefore, our RipEX radio modem has three different protocols for different types of applications. We have added new tutorial videos on our YouTube channel on how to set up our unique protocols Base driven, Flexible and Transparent. All of them are of course subtitled in English, Czech, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian.

We don’t live only by work, so we go on trips together from time to time. Last week our cycling group enjoyed a traditional bike trip. Sometimes we play floorball or football, do pilates regularly or just go out to enjoy some time together.

The RAy microwave link family is growing with another band – this time 11 GHz. The new RAy3-11 has a max. RF power of +23 dBm and thanks to dual channel technology allows speeds up to 2 Gb/s.

After six years, we are discontinuing the production of the M!DGE2 cellular router because, among other reasons, the key components used in it are no longer available on the market. The M!DGE2 has been fully replaced since 2023 by the new, more modern M!DGE3 generation. All customers who have been purchasing the M!DGE2 from us will be contacted individually with details of how production will be discontinued and the possibility of last orders.

Our RipEX radio modems are often used in marine applications. With our partner EBDS we are therefore participating in the Navexpo conference and exhibition in France this week. Navexpo is one of the most important trade shows where the latest technologies used on water, underwater and in the air are presented.

The process ‘the handover of the company’s management to a new generation‘ which has been underway at RACOM for several years was formally completed in March. The founders of the company, Jiří Hruška and Martin Lácha, have left the day-to-day management and RACOM has 4 executive directors since April. More information can be found here.

We have revised and cleaned up our YouTube channel. There are about 60 videos categorized by product lines and topics. You will find tutorials, technical presentations and guides, webinar recordings and much more. We are continuously working on new videos, so be sure to subscribe to stay tuned and don’t miss anything.

This time we decided to present information about the latest FW for radiomodem RipEX2 and cellular router M!DGE3 in the form of a video. See how key technical support, development and product management personnel evaluate the new features in security, serial protocols, RTC and more. Video can be found here.

The new model of our world-famous Cellular Router M!DGE3 has been launched in March. The M!DGE3e is based on the same platform as our flagship M!DGE3, but we’ve thoughtfully stripped out some features to make it more affordable. More information can be found here.

Our website is updated every day, but in March we launched an upgraded version that runs on the latest CMS system, so the site is significantly faster. We modified the overall design and made the structure and navigation clearer.

As part of the redesign of the website, a small evolutionary change of our logo was made. The font itself has changed only slightly, the bat icon has been modified more. It is now square and better suits the current requirements for displaying on mobile phones.

At the beginning of January, the third FAT for the next delivery of RipEX2 radio modems for power distribution in Egypt was successfully completed. We have delivered approximately 300 pcs of RipEX2 radio modems in the first phase of the project and believe that more will follow. More information can be found here.

RACOM continues its steady growth! As every year in January, the company’s management met with the sales team to review the previous year and to inform themselves about the prospects for the year ahead. The results for 2023 were better than 2022 and the outlook for 2024 also looks promising. More information can be found here.

As every year we will be attending the Distributech Conference & Exhibition, which will take place 27-29 February 2024 in Orlando, USA. Distributech is the largest event in the field of power generation and distribution, its automation, metering, SCADA, telemetry, smart cities, etc. If you are interested, register for free and stop by our booth.

Celesc in Brazil has decided to use our radio modems in a pilot project to remotely collect data from power meters in order to automate metering. RipEX and RipEX2 radio modems are used in the network through which approximately 35,400 meters communicate to the centre. More information can be found here.

In November we hosted a webinar to discuss our latest RAy3 80 GHz microwave link with 10 Gb/s speed. We talked about how the RAy3-80 is performing in mass production, what its technical features and capabilities are and what users have experienced with it in the field. A recording of the webinar is available here.

The second webinar was held in December and focused on two more products that we launched in 2023 – the RipEX2e Radio modem and the M!DGE3 Cellular router and their comparison with other members of their product lines. We also talked about current trends in SCADA communications and hybrid networks that combine communication over a private radio channel and a cellular network. A recording of the webinar is available here.

We have released new FW 2.1.2.0 for RipEX2 Radio modem and M!DGE3 Cellular router. The most interesting of the new features is OpenVPN, the implementation of which is unique in the radio modem market. For RipEX2 we have also improved the encryption on the radio channel to AES-256-CCM which prevents Replay attack.

Thank you for your support and cooperation in 2023. We will do our best to grow our cooperation in 2024 and will do everything possible to make you satisfied with RACOM. We wish you all the best for the New Year!

This year we have launched new models of the RipEX2e Radio modem and the M!DGE3 Cellular router which have quickly established themselves on the market. In addition to these models in the webinar we will present hybrid networks where both technologies are combined, give examples from practice and talk about the latest trends in wireless communications for SCADA systems. Register here.

The use of RipEX radio modems is very diverse. In Chile for example they are installed on a glacier at an altitude of 2,165 m in a tectonically active area where data from seismological and meteorological measurements are transferred. Remote area accessible only by helicopter with no infrastructure thus the modems are powered by solar panels.

RAy microwave links are well established in the US market where RACOM has three distributors: ISP supplies, Streakwave Wireless and Alliance Corporation. All distributors had a booth at Wispapalooza, the largest exhibition for the ISP market in the USA. In the presence of our representative they introduced our new this year product – RAy3 for 80 GHz.

RAy3 for 80 GHz has achieved a strong market presence within its mere six months of availability. We invite you to a Webinar where you will gain insights into the capabilities of the RAy3-80 link. In addition, webinar attendees will have the opportunity to get a test link under special conditions.

After two years of testing, RipEX2 radio modems have been selected to provide communications in a large-scale project to upgrade power distribution networks in Egypt. In the presence of the Japanese investor, general contractors and the end customer, FAT tests were successfully completed in August and the first 200 units can be shipped to Egypt.

Ukrainian energy companies are doing their maximum to keep the distribution networks running and supplying electricity as continuously as possible during the war. We are pleased that our RipEX2 radio modems, of which we delivered another 66 units to our partner there in September, are contributing to this.

In September we released new FW for RAy3 – 80 GHz. The most interesting of the added features is the possibility of complete Eth switch configuration, which is identical to RAy3 for other bands. In addition, TX mute (possibility to suppress radio transmission) and faster and more powerful ATPC have been implemented. Of course, a few minor bugs have been fixed as well.
