Business Wire
ADC (NASDAQ: ADCT) (www.adc.com) today announced that Allina
Hospitals & Clinics, a not-for-profit network of hospitals,
clinics and other health care services, providing care throughout
Minnesota and western Wisconsin, is deploying ADC InterReach
Fusion® distributed antenna systems (DAS) to deliver strong
and consistent mobile broadband data and voice services in its
hospitals. ADC systems are already deployed in Allina’s company
headquarters in Minneapolis and at Abbott Northwestern Hospital in
Minneapolis, and other facilities within the Allina footprint are
slated for deployments as well.
“We needed to provide consistent coverage for our doctors and
staff, especially since the doctors are beginning to use new mobile
healthcare applications,” said Dwight Heairet, network specialist
lead for Allina. “We started with our company headquarters and have
now rolled out the systems in our first hospital, with more to come
as budget permits.”
The ADC InterReach Fusion systems deployed by Allina support all
four major US wireless service providers. Because they are easy to
deploy, the company’s own IT staff has installed the DAS solutions
on its own. “They are very easy to deploy and you just turn them on
and they work,” said Heairet.
The ADC systems have brought uniform wireless service throughout
Allina headquarters, and have so far enabled mobile device use in
Abbott Hospital’s basement and lower floors. Because of the
InterReach Fusion’s fiber backbone and flexible architecture, the
system can easily be expanded to cover the entire hospital as
budget permits. Allina’s network includes 11 hospitals and 58
clinics throughout the area.
“Healthcare facilities are usually earthquake-proof buildings
with dense interior designs, which makes them particularly
challenging for reliable wireless service, but the rising use of
mobile healthcare applications makes it essential for service to be
provided,” said John Spindler, vice president of product management
at ADC’s Network Solutions business unit. “ADC’s DAS solutions are
preferred by many major hospitals because they are easy to deploy
and they deliver high-quality, uniform service throughout the
interior space.”
