The Fayette County Evaluation Committee, comprising a cross functional group of public safety stakeholders, unanimously selected JVCKENWOOD as their vendor of choice.

  • Full turnkey services for system implementation and ongoing maintenance
<>"Our commitment to our customers is to provide mission critical communication solutions that make safe simple. We're delighted to partner with Fayette County. With patented ATLAS Latitude technology, the proposed Fayette County system design eliminates the core problems of traditional land mobile radio systems. Leveraging an end-to-end IP distributed architecture, the ATLAS system is the most fault-tolerant simulcast system on the market today," says John Suzuki, EFJohnson President and CEO.
