“This is an exciting technology solution with huge potential and advantages for our customers, particularly in the mining sector.”
As part of the acquisition, Chris Snell moves across to RFI to join the mining solutions group, leading the further development of the Digital Drift system and its integration with RFI’s two-way radio solutions.
