DAMM Cellular Systems A/S announces termination of it's joint venture with Consort Digital; Company clarifies future sales and support arrangements.

DAMM Cellular Systems A/S (“DAMM DK”) today announced the formal termination of its joint venture relationship with Consort Digital Pte. Ltd., Singapore, and associated entities including DAMM Cellular Systems Pte. Ltd. (“DCSPL”) and its wholly owned subsidiary DAMM Cellular Systems India Pvt. Ltd. (“DCSIPL”). This decision marks the end of a longstanding strategic collaboration between the companies in critical communications infrastructure across multiple markets.

Termination and Clarification of Relationship

Effective immediately, DAMM DK is no longer associated with DCSPL, DCSIPL, or any Consort Digital–affiliated entities. DAMM DK will not sell, distribute, endorse, or provide technical support, warranty services, or assume liability for products marketed or sold by DCSPL or DCSIPL, including any products that may bear the “DAMM” brand through their channels. Customers, distributors, and partners seeking genuine DAMM products and support are directed to engage directly with DAMM DK’s authorised sales and service networks. Any questions can be directed to DAMM Cellular Systems A/S.

Historical Overview of the Partnership

Over the past several years, DAMM DK and Consort Digital worked closely together through a formal joint venture known as DAMM India, established to combine DAMM’s world‑class digital radio infrastructure with Consort Digital’s regional system integration and deployment expertise. This collaboration was central to the delivery of mission‑critical communications systems for large public transport and metro projects in India and other markets.

Key collaborative achievements included:

  • Pune Metro Rail Projects – A combined radio communications solution featuring DAMM indoor systems, Consort Digital’s train radio systems and integrated handsets supported critical operations across extensive track coverage and multiple lines.
  • Nagpur Metro System Deployment – DAMM’s TetraFlex® infrastructure, delivered in partnership with Consort Digital, provided scalable, flexible radio communications tailored to metro requirements.
  • Other transportation and infrastructure deployments where DAMM technology and Consort Digital’s integration capabilities contributed to safety and operational needs across rail networks.

These joint efforts combined DAMM’s flexible, open‑architecture radio platforms with Consort Digital’s local project execution, supporting major investments in mission‑critical communications for transit authorities and public safety organisations.

Forward‑Looking Direction

DAMM remains committed to delivering industry‑leading mission‑critical communications solutions, emphasising direct engagement with its global partner and service ecosystem. The company reiterates that all future sales, service, support, and warranty requests for DAMM‑branded products must be sourced through DAMM DK and its authorised channels.

Tommy Trip, DAMM’s CEO adds

“As DAMM DK, we are evolving how we serve the Indian market. To better align with our long-term vision, we are transitioning from our current partnership arrangement to a new model. This shift allows us to invest more deeply in the local market in an even better way than before.”
