This is a major milestone for Cytranet, and an even bigger win for the organizations across the Southwest that depend on reliable communications every single day.
Who Is Tait Communications?
Founded in 1969 in Christchurch, New Zealand by electronics innovator Sir Angus Tait, Tait Communications is a globally recognized radio communications company with offices in 17 countries, developing voice and data radio technologies and manufacturing the majority of its products at its Christchurch headquarters — exporting approximately 95% of what it produces.
For over 50 years, Tait has designed, manufactured, and delivered rugged, interoperable, and highly secure radio communications systems for the people who keep communities safe and critical infrastructure running. The Tait portfolio includes P25, DMR, and MPT portables, mobiles, base stations, repeaters, and full trunked networks — delivering decades of proven experience in Private Mobile Radio systems across both conventional and trunked architectures.
Their customers include law enforcement agencies, fire departments, emergency medical services, county governments, utilities, transportation agencies, and industrial enterprises worldwide.
In one of the most powerful real-world tests of their systems’ resilience, when Hurricane Helene struck Asheville and Buncombe County, North Carolina in 2024, the county’s Tait P25 trunked radio network continued operating throughout the disaster and recovery phases — even as cellular and fiber infrastructure completely failed. That is what Tait radio systems are built for.
The Full Tait Product Lineup — Now Available Through Cytranet
As your exclusive Tait dealer, Cytranet can now supply and support the complete product portfolio. Here is an overview of the key radio models and systems available today.
PORTABLE RADIOS
Tait TP9900 — Multiband, Multiprotocol Portable Radio (Newest Model)

It is the lightest P25 and DMR multiband portable radio on the market, featuring a high-capacity battery, compact design, and Tait TOUGH reliability. The enhanced ergonomic grip and controls are designed for easy operation with or without gloves — keeping the focus on the mission, not the technology.
What makes the TP9900 especially powerful is its true interoperability. Changing between P25, DMR, VHF, or UHF is as easy as changing channels. Operators do not need to worry about which frequency or protocol the radio is on — they simply select the right channel for the right group or situation.
Key features include:
- P25 Phase 1 & Phase 2, DMR, and Analog in a single device
- Configurable for VHF, UHF, 700/800MHz, and 900MHz bands
