Alanco Technologies, Inc. announced today the first U.S.A. installation of its new Wi-Fi compatible, 2.4 gigahertz TSI PrismM RFID inmate tracking technology at the Marion County Juvenile Detention Center in Indianapolis, Indiana. The recently completed deployment of TSI Prism's new system was unveiled at a public demonstration at the Detention Center held on July 20, 2007, attended by Marion County dignitaries.Alanco/TSI Prism's new 2.4 gigahertz system is Wi-Fi compatible which provides for seamless incorporation of other wireless communication devices, such as handheld monitoring units for corrections officers. The new system also features a patented, rapid on/off inmate wrist transmitter in an industry-first rechargeable battery configuration.

Greg M. Oester, president of Alanco/TSI Prism, Inc., commented, "The 2.4 gigahertz TSI Prism system is targeted to international markets, where 2.4 gigahertz frequency usage is generally unrestricted, and to densely populated urban jails which can most effectively utilize advanced Wi-Fi communication networks. The new system's rapid on/off wrist transmitter with rechargeable battery also enhances staff productivity and eliminates costly battery change outs. This new 2.4 gigahertz technology complements our industry standard 900 megahertz TSI Prism system designed for the general inmate populations typical of the larger, medium-security state and federal prisons."
