HILLSBOROUGH TOWNSHIP, NJ, IL, UNITED STATES, May 5, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- CSE Crosscom USA, Inc. ("CSE Crosscom"), a leader in mission- and operational-critical communications and security solutions, today announced the acquisition of Chicago Communications LLC (“Chicago Communications”), a trusted provider of two-way radio, dispatch, and wireless infrastructure services across northern Illinois and northwest Indiana. This strategic acquisition marks a significant milestone in CSE Crosscom’s North American expansion and reinforces its strong presence in the public safety and commercial communications sectors.

Michael O’Connor, CEO of CSE Crosscom USA Inc., shared his enthusiasm for the acquisition:

“We are pleased to add Chicago Communications to the CSE Crosscom USA family. Our national footprint is expanding rapidly. Chicago Communications has a long, rich history supporting both Government and Commercial customers in the Midwest, including northern Illinois and northwest Indiana through their previous acquisition of Miner Electronics. This new addition is more than just a growth milestone—it’s an accelerator of our mission to deliver reliable, scalable safety and security solutions wherever our customers need them, across every vertical market.”

Founded in 1953, Chicago Communications brings more than 70 years of experience in delivering end-to-end wireless solutions to clients in public safety, healthcare, education, manufacturing, and beyond. The company is a Motorola Solutions Platinum Channel Partner and Platinum Service Partner, Motorola’s highest recognition for technical capability and service excellence.

Cindy Glashagel, Principal of Chicago Communications, commented on the partnership:
“Partnering with CSE Crosscom is a great opportunity for Chicago Communications. Aligning with Mike O’Connor and his leadership provides us with a strategic roadmap for long-term success. CSE Crosscom is a global organization well-positioned to take Chicago Communications, our employees, and most importantly our customers into the future. Their global presence, financial stability, broad partnerships with best-in-class manufacturers, and technical know-how will enable us to support our customers with even more comprehensive wireless communications, safety, and security solutions. We're excited to begin this new journey together.”

This marks CSE Crosscom’s third North American acquisition, following the successful acquisitions of RFC Wireless (Silicon Valley, 2024) and Radio One (Orlando, 2023). As with previous acquisitions, Chicago Communications will continue to operate under its established brand—now as a CSE Crosscom company—with the same experienced team and continued dedication to exceptional service.

Together, Chicago Communications and the CSE Crosscom group will combine resources and expertise to expand service offerings, strengthen customer support, and deliver best-in-class voice, video, and data solutions across the mission- and operational-critical communications landscape.
