Case Study: Tucson PD Motorcycle Officers Deploy the Toughbook U1

Motorcycle officers in the Traffic Enforcement Division of the Tucson Police Department used to be cut off from critical information, unable to access the CAD system and dependent on radio transmissions for communication. Now they’re equipped with the Toughbook® U1, an extremely rugged ultra-portable computer that runs a full Windows® OS and features embedded Gobi™ 3G technology. Officers can now utilize the extensive Verizon Wireless network to access the CAD and run e-citation software from anywhere on patrol.
