Microwave Power Products (MPP)

In June 2024, Microwave Power Products was spun out of Communications & Power Industries. We are a global manufacturer of electronic components and subsystems serving primarily the aerospace and defense markets. We develop, design and manufacture a broad array of RF and microwave products for critical defense and commercial applications. Although we have a new name and new ownership, Microwave Power Products offers the same technological excellence, superior service and dedication to innovation that you have come to expect from us since 1948.

FreeWave Technologies

FreeWave Technologies has connected industrial operations for more than 30 years. From oil fields and power grids to water systems and manufacturing floors, our wireless technology has kept critical infrastructure running in the harshest conditions on earth. When the rest of the world couldn't reach it, FreeWave did. That heritage matters now more than ever. The same networks we helped build are today's most targeted attack surface. Industrial operators are running critical assets on infrastructure that was never designed to be secured against modern threats and the security tools designed for IT environments don't understand what operational downtime actually costs. The FreeWave Zentry solution answers the call. An operational zero trust platform purpose-built for OT and ICS environments. It makes industrial assets invisible to attackers, replaces inherited security systems with identity-based connectivity, and deploys as an overlay on existing infrastructure in hours, not months. No rip and replace. No operational disruption. No exceptions. FreeWave serves industrial enterprise, manufacturing, energy, utilities, oil and gas, water and wastewater, and federal and defense customers through a global network of channel partners. Our products are designed and built in Boulder, Colorado. Secure the Operation. Not Just the Network.
