Christchurch, New Zealand, 4th November 2025

Tait Communications, a global leader in designing and delivering critical communication solutions, today announced it has joined the 450 MHz Alliance, a global association dedicated to advancing the 450 MHz ecosystem. This strategic move reinforces Tait's commitment to supporting the development and deployment of private wireless networks for critical infrastructure industries.

Tait has a long-standing reputation for engineering rugged, reliable, and secure communications solutions that keep essential services running smoothly. Its expertise in mission-critical technology for sectors such as utilities, public safety, and transportation makes it a natural fit for the alliance.

Joining the 450 MHz Alliance is a strategically important step for Tait to help shape the future of mission-critical private networks. The 450 MHz spectrum is uniquely suited for critical communications due to its ability to provide exceptional wide-area coverage and deep indoor/underground penetration. This is particularly valuable for industries like utilities and transportation that need to cover vast, often remote, geographical areas with minimal infrastructure.

By becoming a member, Tait will gain direct access to a global network of wireless carriers, equipment manufacturers, and vertical market representatives. This collaboration will be vital for a number of reasons:

• Accelerating Development: Tait will work directly with other industry leaders to influence standards and develop new equipment that supports the expanding 450 MHz ecosystem.
• Meeting Market Needs: The Alliance provides a platform for members to share technical knowledge and best practices, ensuring that Tait's product roadmap aligns with the real-world requirements of its customers.
• Driving Innovation: This partnership will help foster economies of scale, encouraging the creation of more cost-effective and innovative solutions for the growing demand for private networks.
