Tecore Network’s Managed Access puts a Stop on the Cellular Contraband Epidemic Raging Across the Correctional Institutions

For Immediate Release: Monday, February 9, 2015

Check out our iNAC System at ACA’s Winter Conference

Hanover, MD, USA, February 9, 2015 – Tecore Networks, the inventor of Managed Access Technology, a patented solution, and a pioneer global supplier of American-made 2G, 3G, and 4G/LTE mobile network infrastructure announced today that they will be showcasing its Intelligent Network Access Controller (iNAC)™, at the upcoming American Correctional Association’s (ACA) 2015 Winter Conference. The conference is being held February 6-11, 2015, at the Long Beach Convention Center and Entertainment Center in Long Beach, California.

The use of contraband cellular phones within the correctional institutions is a growing epidemic from coast to coast. These devices provide unmonitored communications allowing inmates to contact victims, make threats, call out hits, plan escapes and continue illegal operations. In order to eliminate the use of contraband cell phones, Tecore’s iNAC creates a Radio Frequency (RF) umbrella over a facility, allowing the management of all cellular communications in the target area – including voice, text, data sessions, Facebook access, etc. By deploying counter measures for each technology and operator deployed in the area, the solution covers the complete spectrum of technologies from 2G to 3G to 4G. Additionally Managed Access can also provide effective supervision of WiFi and Bluetooth technologies. With constant changes in cellular technology, Tecore has proven that this solution can stand of the test of time by merging new technologies as they adapt to provide correctional institutions with a full spectrum of coverage.

It is clear by Tecore’s most recent iNAC Managed Access deployments in Baltimore, Maryland, which cover over one million square feet combined, have drastically impacted the issue of contraband cell phones at the two operational facilities. Prior to the installations, each facility was confiscating hundreds of illegal cell phones from inmates each year. With the effectiveness of Managed Access in place, the combined number of devices confiscated to date between the facilities is less than ten. This is a game changing solution, for correctional departments across the country to ensure the efficiency and security of their programs.

Tecore executives will be available at Booth 329 to discuss how the iNAC technology solution can address the needs of your institution.
