Hilomast LLC: Innovation Driven by Expertise

Founded in 2003, Hilomast LLC brings extensive engineering and manufacturing expertise to the SMC Group. Based in the United States, Hilomast has earned a reputation for designing and supporting advanced telescopic mast systems that provide reliable, efficient communication in the most demanding environments. From emergency services to defence and broadcast, Hilomast serves customers who depend on rugged proven solutions.

CTS: Trusted RF Components with Proven Performance

We manufacture and supply the CTS brand of HF broadband ferrite matching transformers, hybrids, multicouplers, filters, and associated products. Introduced in 1987, the CTS product line has earned industry-wide recognition for its reliability and precision. In 1998, we expanded this range by incorporating the full offering of Minns Baluns Ltd, strengthening our position in high-frequency RF solutions.

CTS products now play an integral role in our broader communications portfolio. Engineers and technical teams around the world trust CTS for mission-critical applications, where consistency and quality matter.

By integrating Hilomast and CTS into the SMC Group offering, we deliver a complete and cohesive range of RF communication solutions. Our customers benefit from a single source for everything from telescopic mast systems to advanced RF components, backed by decades of innovation and hands-on expertise.
