Cocoa Beach rolls out wireless broadband with Mesh Networks

MAITLAND, Fla.-Mesh Networks Inc. and Scientel America announced that the City of Cocoa Beach has rolled out live mobile broadband services based on Mesh technology.

Using the MeshNetworks Enabled Architecture, the city will have high-speed “always on” access to databases, images, video and other forms of dynamic media, according to the companies.

“MeshNetworks provided us with the best combination of cost, performance and reliability, which allows the Cocoa Beach Police Department, as well as other city departments, to provide enhanced services and improved responsiveness to the community,” said Jeff Thiel, information technology director of the City of Cocoa Beach.

“Because of Cocoa Beach’s proximity to NASA and Air Force facilities, the MEA system may in the future play a role in homeland security initiatives.”
