'Eyes in the Sky' Heighten Security for Presidential Debate At Hofstra University
When the Nassau County Police Department was looking to increase its security coverage for the second presidential debate, which took place on October 16th at Hofstra University, it turned to Integrated Microwave Technologies, LLC (IMT), a Business Unit within the Vitec Group’s Videocom Division, and a leader in advanced digital microwave systems for MAG (Military, Aerospace & Government) markets, and a range of its wireless technologies to create a complete system for the event.
The Nassau County Police Department deployed IMT’s Skymaster HD Transmitter (SkymasterTX), its RMR-X6-II receiver with Newscoder 4 Decoder (NCRX-4), its Mobile Tactical Receiver and its MobilCMDR in order to ensure that the event went off without any security risks. This included a receive site within the Hofstra library, a mobile command center located at the Nassau Coliseum, a Mobile Command Unit and several mobilehandheld receives placed throughout the area.
