(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 18, 2007 ) Seattle, Washington, USA –- Twisted Pair Solutions, a pioneer in Unified Communications software built to open standards, today announced that its WAVETM software platform has been deployed by the Orlando Sanford International Airport as part of a major upgrade to the airport’s emergency management capability. WAVE’s robust architecture and seamless communications hardware integration has transformed the airport’s trouble-prone analog crash phone system into a cost-effective, highly reliable and readily scalable IP platform for critical emergency communications.
“The WAVE solution was easy to install, is easy to use and will be easy to expand,” said Jerry Crocker, IT Director at Sanford Airport Authority (SAA). “As a software-based system, it’s much more efficient than any of the hardware solutions we looked at, and it integrated seamlessly with our existing infrastructure. Most importantly, we can now handle any issues ourselves, with the immediacy they demand.”
Airport crash phones, which are critical for response coordination in an emergency, typically rely on an antiquated collection of analog hardware, making them costly to maintain, impossible to expand and prone to frequent system failure – all problems routinely faced by SAA. The airport needed a new solution that offered near-infallible reliability, cost-effective management, maintenance and expansion, and that allowed for rapid deployment. After learning of WAVE, airport management knew they had found that solution and contracted with integrator VoiceInterop, of Boca Rotan, Florida, for the design and installation of a WAVE-powered system.
Used extensively throughout the U.S. military to ensure effective command and control in demanding environments, WAVE delivers pervasive communications by connecting users regardless of device, network or application. Its non-proprietary, standards-based and device-independent architecture works equally well with new or existing hardware infrastructure, delivering a fully redundant architecture for proven reliability and maximum uptime. It is easily scalable, supporting interoperability with an unlimited number of users and communications devices, including phones, two-way radio systems and PDAs or PCs. And by leveraging existing systems, eliminating leased-line requirements and offering easy in-house administration and management, WAVE ensures a cost-effective deployment.
“Given increases in threat levels and response complexity, airports deserve technology that just works, putting them instantly in touch with the right people in an emergency,” noted Tom Guthrie, President and CEO of Twisted Pair Solutions. “We designed WAVE to meet these types of critical communications requirements, building a technology that is secure, highly reliable, easily scalable and absolutely affordable to deploy and maintain – whether you’re an enterprise, an airport or a military unit.”
