Chicago PD Continues To Expand Video Surveillance Network

Mountain Secure Systems, a provider of ruggedized electronics and wireless network solutions, shipped additional SpeedLAN 9200 outdoor wireless routers this month to Avrio RMS Group, who will use them to expand coverage for the Chicago Police Department’s video surveillance system in the 4.9 GHz public safety band.

Chicago PD’s video surveillance system is the largest dedicated broadband wireless video surveillance network in the United States. To date, Mountain Secure Systems has provided Avrio RMS Group with more than 1,100 SpeedLAN wireless routers for the Chicago PD video surveillance system.

The SpeedLAN 9200 wireless router, which is the exclusive wireless router used by the Chicago PD, offers coverage for point-to-point, point-to-multipoint and wireless mesh networks for high-speed data, video and voice (VoIP) applications.

“Our SpeedLAN wireless routers have been in operation for more than five years for the Chicago Police Department,” said Ken Dickson, General Manager of Mountain Secure Systems. “They have stood up against some of the worst weather imaginable, yet they continue to be extremely reliable.”
