'''Rander Communications Equipment Inc.''' (RaCom) was a military and civilian electronics manufacturer within the [[Federated Suns]].<ref name=HD(TFS)p172>''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 172 (PDF p. 174): "Other Major Companies in the Federated Suns - [Rander Communications Equipment Inc.]"</ref>
 
 
==Overview==
 
Rander Communications had been providing military communications equipment to the Federated Suns for the past 500 years by the mid-[[thirty-first century]]. Originally owned by the [[House Rander|Rander family]] when it was a subsidiary of a larger [[Star League era]] company, the [[House Tythis|Tythis family]] had assumed ownership of the firm by [[3025]]. By [[3067]], that ownership had been transferred to the [[House DeFalco|DeFalco family]]. The DeFalcos took control after the Tythis family was replaced by [[Archon of the Lyran Commonwealth|Archon]] [[Katherine Steiner-Davion]] during the [[FedCom Civil War]]. The Lyran appointees who ran the company until 3067 were more interested in looting the company's coffers than producing quality goods and this nearly destroyed the firm.<ref name=HB:HDp163/>
 
 
No matter the lineage of the family, all of the owners of the company had worked hard to ensure the companies' continued survival through the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]].<ref name=HD(TFS)p172/> To that end, the main manufacturing plant on Schedar had been built completely underground while a permanent force of aerospace fighters maintained watch.<ref name=HB:HDp163/><ref name=HD(TFS)p172/>
 
 
While primarily a military contractor, Rander had a large civilian branch that made electronics for the public.<ref name=HD(TFS)p172/> Products for the civilian market were released under the '''Tythis Computers and Electronics''' brand name.<ref name=HB:HDp163/>
