Secure, reliable transmission of data from medical devices
can improve patient care and outcomes

Hospitals and other critical care facilities have become a hotbed of wireless activity in recent years. A plethora of equipment such as laptops, PDAs, VoIP phones, and critical medical devices compete for bandwidth on overloaded WiFi networks. However, these WiFi networks were not designed to support many of these applications and often cannot reliably connect devices or ensure the timely delivery of critical data.

 

On-Ramp’s ULP technology is able to provide a “medical grade” wireless network that offers the following benefits:

  • Securely and reliably transport medical device data with support for industry standards such as FIPS 140-2.
  • Overlay network can easily integrate with existing hospital information systems; without interfering with existing wireless systems and with minimal impact on hospital IT staff.
  • Efficient architecture allows ULP network to be quickly and cost effectively deployed and managed in single facility, campus, or metro scenario.
  • Low power consumption allows devices to operate for months or years between charges.

These features allow On-Ramp’s technology to effectively serve variety of devices, including infusion pumps, blood pressure monitors, heart rate monitors, and other devices used in the hospital or home where the reliable delivery of data is critical.
