Las Vegas Fire & Rescue

Las Vegas Fire & Rescue officials are tasked with protecting 600,000 permanent residents and millions of annual visitors; navigating some of the largest hotels in the world. Reliable communication and instant information access are paramount, but responders initially accessed critical information using external wireless modems that, over time, got in their way and caused connectivity issues. The agency addressed this problem by switching to a powerful embedded wireless solution, equipping vehicles with rugged Panasonic Toughbook 31s with Gobi mobile broadband on the AT&T Wireless network. Responders are now able to immediately access critical information during an emergency, allowing them to work faster and smarter.
