Wireless doesn’t mean ―no wires‖…
It means fewer wires.
●Faster deployments
● Less time on the job
● Less inconvenience for occupants
● Eliminate facility downtime or limit it to a
minimum
● Retrofit during opening hours
●Lower costs
● Reduce labor costs
● Reduce material costs (copper)
● Be unbeatable where conduit is required
● Reduce repair, paint and renovation costs
●Reassure customers about dust, asbestos
or other hazards
Wiring is fine
We have the inputs
and outputs you need,
we’re fine with wiring.
Wireless is good
It can be more
cost-effective and
convenient for the
customer.
Just do what’s best
For the customer,
for his facility, for his
return on investment.
