Mobile Data Solution Components

Since 2003 we've been working on and evaluating components of high speed mobile data solutions in order to make them effective for mission critical work environments - public safety, public service and utility. 

The major components of these solutions may include:

Access Points

The "towers".  The locations providing the coverage.

Subscriber Units (SU)

The radios in the vehicle that talk to the "towers".

Mobile Access Points

A Wi-Fi hotspot that extends wireless access from the vehicle to an area surrounding the vehicle (up to a few hundred feet).  Works with laptops, hand-held PDA's and other 802.11 compatible devices.

Wireless Router

A device that connects the SU, the laptop, camera and other devices in the car and provides the mobile access point.

NEMA Enclosure

A weather-proof device to house and protect components in the trunk.

Laptop

Either a conventional or ruggedized laptop computer within the vehicle or mobile around the vehicle.

In-car camera

Analog or digital camera for in-car recording and/or sending live video back to dispatch, administration or other vehicles.

Digital Video Recording

A software application to store and manage videos from in-car, surveillance and security cameras.

Recording Service

A service offering storing your videos for 1, 2, 7, 14 or 30 days.

Cameras

Indoor and outdoor cameras.

Mobile Data Software

A software application or service to enable queries against state and federal databases.  Also provides car-to-car messaging

Mobile Records

A software application for the vehicle that provides mobile access to records management, field reporting and silent dispatch.

Wireless Backhaul

High speed wireless links connecting your local area network to the "towers".
