Wireless Comes of Age

Three technologies have now converged to make wireless data access practical in nearly every community.

FirePoint 7 now teams-up with Microsoft Terminal Server to provide fast data response over "low-speed" data connections.  Microsoft Terminal Server allows communications with compatible applications at speeds as low as 40K baud.  That's ideal for fire departments which must rely on dial-up network access.  But it opens-up new possibilities as well.

Vendors such as Verizon and Nextel now offer PC cards which provide wireless Internet access.  This new technology makes it possible to run Microsoft Terminal Client software on a broad spectrum of mobile devices including laptops and tablet PC's.
