Pexx Provides Critical Wireless Link for Super Bowl XXXVIII Security

Pexx, Inc., a Houston based wireless networking solution provider, has delivered critical wireless link as part of the enhanced security apparatus at the Super Bowl XXXVIII festivities in Reliant Park and Stadium in Houston last Sunday.

Live video from security cameras in multiple locations were sent over a dedicated primary wireless link to an undisclosed location where "Special Response Teams" were deployed in an active standby mode before, during and after the game. Images from cameras were available to members of multiple City, County, State, and Federal agencies as part of their emergency preparedness.

Jennifer Greene, President of Pexx, Inc. noted that "our role with the Houston Police Department helped to make Super Bowl XXXVIII the success that it was." Ms. Greene pointed out that "the cost to install fiber for this special event was prohibitive and Pexx stepped up and offered to provide a wireless 36 Mbps secure link.

Pexx, Inc., a Houston based wireless networking and surveillance solutions provider, provided multiple video surveillance (VSP) packages to the Houston Police Department to be used by the HPD security team during this years Super Bowl festivities. The surveillance package, a unique design by Pexx, was designed and installed by Pexx technical staff.

Jennifer Greene, President of Pexx, pointed out that "these custom packages are mounted in special weather tight boxes to facilitate rapid relocation and installation at special events such as the Super Bowl and can be easily broken down and moved to other locations as required." In a time were security vigilance and real-time situational awareness is a top priority for our country, having a surveillance solution that provides mobility and flexibility, without sacrificing quality is not just a luxury - it is a real requirement for law enforcement agencies and security companies.

Pexx has named these unrivaled boxes the PexxVSP. The PexxVSP is an integrated wireless video surveillance unit capable of acquiring and transmitting high quality, remotely controlled color video plus a number of additional alarm/sensor inputs are available as an optional upgrade. This package is a significant addition to any security operation. With these units as wireless links, security operations can be deployed rapidly and cost effectively with tremendous flexibility. With the addition of heat sensors, motion detectors, or input from any number of auxiliary sensors that can utilized, the customer has an extra set of eyes in many hard to get to or dangerous places.

"The PexxVSP can greatly increase surveillance capabilities without large capital expenditures and low to no monthly recurring costs" states Ms. Greene. Greene went on to point out that "there are a number of add-on capabilities that can be integrated to the package greatly expanding and enhancing the scope of security operations. These cameras are IP addressable so they can be viewed remotely on a world wide network if desired. Large scale sites can be intra-linked via our microwave products and returns to Headquarters or NOC's can be accomplished via our VSAT or Fiber products."
