City Hall Connects to Police Department with Maxtech Wireless LAN.

Anderson, CA (January 29, 1999) -- Serving a small town of 9,000 residents, the Anderson Police Department works closely with the administrators in the city hall building. With limited funds, the two buildings needed to share resources in order to maximize productivity and efficiency. The two buildings stand nearly a half-mile apart. With increased need for city workers to share files between buildings, they found that they were spending too much time waiting for dial-up modems to send data over old-fashioned phone lines.

City Finance Director Dana Shigley concluded that this expensive use of resources could be remedied by tying the two NT servers into one network. The only question was how to connect the two distant buildings in a way that the small city could afford. Guy Lemke of the local Com-pair Corporation was called in to shed light on the new technology of wireless LAN. Lemke explained how a Maxtech wireless LAN system could transmit data rapidly, easily and inexpensively between the two distant buildings.

It took less than one day for Com-Pair to install the Maxtech LANescape system between city hall and the police department. The entire wireless LAN system cost the city less than $3,000. The workers in the two buildings can now transfer files, send email, share the Internet and output big print jobs with the speed and efficiency of a local area network. Dana Shigley was elated over the fact that the LANescape system would pay for itself many times over compared to the cost of leasing a T1line from Pacific Bell. "The wireless LANescape system from Maxtech was quick and easy to install," states Shigley. "The LANescape installation provided a dramatic costs savings over T1 line options and provided quicker and better service."
