RDA Towers

RDA towers are self-supporting industrial communication towers used to deploy SCADA systems, telemetry equipment, and other wireless monitoring and control networks. These towers are manufactured by RDA Solutions, LLC, and are used to mount omni-directional antennas and Yagi antennas used in industrial radio communication networks. RDA towers are commonly used at well sites, pipeline monitoring points, and other remote locations where wireless communication is needed between field equipment and a central control point, such as oil & gas wells, water & wastewater facilities, and public utilities.

RDA towers are built to withstand the environmental conditions of field locations, including high wind speeds, high and low temperatures, and lightning strikes. They are used to lift the level of an antenna, in order to clear nearby obstacles such as buildings, hills, trees, and other obstructions that can limit radio communication. Raising the level of an antenna using a RDA tower can increase the distance of a wireless communication signal, making the signal more reliable for industrial radio systems operating at 450 MHz, 900 MHz, and other frequencies used in telemetry communication.
