Hot New Product!

We just got the news that our new lightning-fast LongHaul ST 700 was named Hot Product for 2011 by the editors of Public Safety Communications, a publication of APCO (Association of Public Safety Communications Officials International).

At the APCO conference in Houston in August, an anonymous team of judges wandered the aisles of the exhibitor booths, talking to vendors and asking questions. Of the 72 entries submitted, they selected 25 products for editors to tell readers about in the upcoming issue of Public Safety Communications. Carlson is very pleased that the LongHaul ST-700 was among those selected.

The "ST-700" is a high-speed Ethernet bridge that offers public safety entities an affordable way to deploy 700 MHz networks. Operating in the licensed 700 MHz frequency band, the ST-700 combines the non-line-of-sight capability of sub-GHz communications with the security and privacy of a licensed frequency band. 

The 700 MHz frequency is capable of strong connections even in true non-line-of-sight situations, enabling agencies of all sizes, whether metro, rural, or even mobile communications units to access mission-critical information even when trees, buildings or hills are in the way.

Excellent for traffic-monitoring applications, this radio is capable of transmitting high-quality video and complex pieces of information at extremely fast speeds, as well as making it possible for multiple client stations to access the base unit at the same time with little delay. 

The LongHaul ST's unique combination of high throughput and low latency was proven in a recent competition, the Animal Farm “Backhaul Bakeoff” in Salt Lake City, Utah. Carlson is very please to offer this product now in 700 MHz.
