Unit 11: Wireless WAN

Results Notes
To date, the wireless solution designed by Advanced Network Systems with the
Motorola PTP 400 and PTP 600 Series radios has proven to be an extremely reliable,
high-performance, converged voice and data network. Paired with the County’s existing
VoIP communication system, the solution effectively deploys telephony services at every
government facility. Agencies immediately took advantage of computer management
for e-mail, anti-virus control, file sharing and Internet services such as online Standards
of Learning (SOL) testing capabilities for the County’s public schools. Plus, specialized
services have been added, including video surveillance at the airport and E-911 information
applications for police, fire and rescue departments. Substantial cost savings and ROI have
resulted from the removal of analog voice lines that previously existed throughout the
County’s system.
Later, the County added redundancy to its backbone for traffic re-routing. They have plans
to connect three public libraries and two more emergency services locations. Other future
plans may include the implementation of mobile data connectivity for emergency services
enabled through the wireless network.
