Scott County Schools
A school district in rural Tennessee with less than 3,000 students, Scott County lacked the resources to hire and retain advanced level teachers. Many required classes were held at a single facility, forcing students to bus between schools. A distance learning solution has dramatically streamlined resources, saved hours of bus travel, and still provides a face-to-face educational experience.

San Diego County
The communications, collaboration and information-sharing capabilities enabled by the Regional Command and Control Communications (3Cs) network has enhanced performance of first responders in the southern California area. As a joint initiative between law enforcement and fire-rescue agencies, this unified network is not only providing alternatives to radio communication, but is also encouraging agencies in the area to work together to maximize the region’s resources, especially during large-scale natural disasters or man-made incidents.
