Connecting your patrol vehicle fleet
Dependable communication allows law enforcement officers to respond to calls quickly and to make informed decisions with safety in mind. To that end, most agencies choose to utilize in-vehicle routers to ensure connectivity on the road.
As with most technology, there are a variety of routers on the market, and the price point of each reflects its features (or lack thereof). For those looking for a higher-end model, check out the ICR-3241. For those looking for basic functionality and durability, the Advantech ICR-2441 is an excellent and affordable option.
What is a wireless gateway router?
A wireless gateway router functions as both a modem and a router by providing a seamless connection to the internet. For an optimized patrol vehicle, buyers should always look for a rugged router model that withstands various environmental conditions. A patrol vehicle router should also save space within the patrol car and provide dependable connectivity from everywhere within your jurisdiction.
