Castle Rock Microwave Newsletter - August 2025

Building Safer Streets with Real Time Crime Centers and Smart Traffic Centers

On August 13, local leaders joined us in person for a powerful panel and Q&A about building safer, smarter streets.

City leaders and tech experts shared real-world wins from Colorado communities that have launched real-time crime centers and intelligent traffic systems.

From best practices to lessons learned, attendees walked away with clear, actionable steps for designing networks that can handle the demands of 2025 and beyond.

We wrapped it all up with great Q&A, a networking lunch, and hands-on tech demos.

A huge thank you to our panelists & speakers:

  • Todd Brown - Commander, Castle Rock Police Department
  • Dan Sines - Systems Engineer - Embedded Contractor, City of Colorado Springs
  • Josh Smith - Technical Infrastructure Manager, City of Aurora
  • Jonathan Shawhart, Cambium Networks.

Keeping Critical Communications Alive

When CORE Electric Cooperative needed to relocate a key tower site under tight deadlines and with multiple agencies relying on the connection, the challenge was clear: move fast, avoid downtime, and reduce costs.

With limited in-house resources, CORE partnered with Castle Rock Microwave to manage the project from start to finish.

The result? A smooth transition completed on time and within budget, lower lease costs, and improved year-round site access, helping CORE keep critical systems running reliably while saving money.
