This innovative system will play a pivotal role in supporting the county's P25 Public Safety Radio Network and provide robust local coverage of the state's interoperable Digital Trunked Radio System.
Rio Blanco County needed to expand and optimize its broadband network to provide reliable connectivity in rural areas - and we were more than happy to help! To achieve their goal, we installed microwave and fiber equipment to enhance infrastructure and extend service reach to underserved communities.
The project resulted in significant cost savings and was completed ahead of schedule.
It was great to see everyone at the In-Building Public Safety Communications Seminar hosted by the Safer Buildings Coalition!
If you didn’t get a chance to stop by our table - you can grab the resource we were offering here - a complimentary ERCES plan submittal template.
From there, our team headed to the 2024 Radio Summit hosted by the Public Safety Communications Subcommittee, where we presented “Four Insights to Improve Controls for Radio System Stakeholders."
Check out this article from RCR Wireless, covering that the FCC has requested additional funding to support the "rip-and-replace" initiative, which aims to remove certain equipment from U.S. networks due to national security concerns.
Without this funding, many rural telecom providers may face shutdowns, risking the loss of essential communication services in remote areas.

Did you know? Radio equipment is not set-it-and-forget-it. Manufacturers go out of business, and certain radios and equipment become obsolete - meaning your network can have components that aren’t working as they should.
Unfortunately, this can lead to downtime, service disruptions, security issues, and lost revenue.
If you’re wondering about your equipment and the impacts to your network, we’re currently offering complimentary point-to-point link analysis & budgetary pricing for microwave link upgrades.
Reach out below to schedule time with a specialist.
Through discovery, design, deployment, and support, our 3DS™ process sets your network up for today - and tomorrow.
It all starts with discovery, where we execute the following to test your network’s real-world viability.
Discovery is the foundation of our process and sets the stage for your future-proof network.
Spectrum allocation directly impacts your access to wireless connectivity and emerging technologies like 5G. Efficient spectrum usage enhances telecommunications infrastructure and fosters innovation and economic competitiveness.
