Networking innovations For correctional facilities looking to upgrade their surveillance, communication, and access control systems, the prospect of re-cabling can be daunting. However, with modern solutions that enable IP connectivity over existing infrastructure, these challenges can be effectively addressed. By avoiding the high costs and operational disruptions of re-cabling, facilities can improve security, operational efficiency, and overall safety while staying within budget and on schedule. These solutions also significantly reduce material and elec tronic waste, ensuring the IP migration project is environmentally responsible. Technology decision-makers should consider modern PoE innovations as a viable strategy for their IP migration projects. By leveraging existing cabling infrastructure, correctional facilities can achieve their digital transformation goals without the traditional pitfalls, ensuring better outcomes for staff, inmates, and the community at large.
