ConnectCom is a stakeholder in the national digital radio network operator for the police, the fire services and the emergency services in Luxembourg, and in addition a long-term partner of Motorola Solutions GmbH. Other customers include large industrial companies, European institutions and the special forces of various European countries.

Both partners in ConnectCom, Claude Dupont and Claude Deitz, are to remain as partners in the company. Claude Dupont will in addition take on rolling out the German unit of UPLINK Systems GmbH with immediate effect. The unit focuses, like ConnectCom in Luxembourg, on well-known providers and established partners, including Abel&Käufl Mobile Telecommunications GmbH, pei tel Communications GmbH and ATS Electronics GmbH.

With this transaction, UPLINK is resolutely pursuing its course from the largest radio provider in Germany to pan-European radio specialist. Apart from operating well over 1,000 analogue and digital transceivers (UKW and DAB+) across Germany, as well as its own online streaming platform for public and private broadcasting, the group provides solutions in the areas of IoT (LoRaWAN), mobile telephony (5G) and radio applications and camera solutions for industry and government bodies. The core competencies of the group with an annual turnover currently of more than €60 million are the planning, construction and operation of critical infrastructure to the highest security standards.

Michael Radomski, UPLINK Group CEO: “The UPLINK Group is now resolutely pursuing its growth course with the focus on the operation of critical infrastructure outside the German market as well.”
