"With Proxim's new Tsunami MP.11 Model 954-R, we can create reliable, high-speed wireless links in environments where line-of-sight is simply not possible," said Gregg Rowland, Senior Vice President Sales and Marketing at ShotSpotter, Inc. "ShotSpotter's wireless Gunshot Location System is a mission critical tool for public safety and the military, so reliable communications to and from our sensors is essential to dispatch or the command and control systems."
