The G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer is a completely versatile car based computer system that is ideal for police and law enforcement vehicle installations which require a powerful, rugged, and affordable vehicle mounted PC. The G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer is a perfect mobile data terminal solution for nearly any law enforcement, fire truck or public safety vehicle installation.
The G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer is a perfect alternative to rugged laptop computer systems such as the Toughbook which are bulky, obtrusive and overpriced. In addition, these notebook computers require special vehicle mounts to affix them in the vehicle. The G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer can easily be mounted into any common police patrol vehicle such as a Ford Crown Victoria, Ford Expedition, Chevrolet Impala, Chevrolet Tahoe or Dodge Charger. Our in car computer platform is a modular solution making it easy to mount and operate in a police car. The LCD display which is mounted on or in front of the dash is completely separate from the car computer, which is mounted in the trunk or under a seat. This modular system not only makes mounting easier but also increases serviceability in the case that any component should fail or need to be upgraded.
The G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer is the latest in mobile law enforcement technology. Although not our primary market, G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer’s and our line of LCD displays have been used around the world by police departments in their patrol vehicles. The G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer is a rugged all aluminum design, which features an integrated mobile hard drive, fast processor and Windows XP operating system. The G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer also has plenty of expansion ports including USB and fire wire which will allow the addition of external DVR and video camera recording equipment often found in police patrol vehicles. The system also features a PCMCIA slot which allows the addition of a wireless internet card such as the Sierra Wireless Aircard or Sony Ericson GCXX series of adapters. The addition of one of these cards to the G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer will give police officers the ability to remotely connect via the internet or e-mail to police dispatch and any other police technology resources that the department might be using.
A G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer mounted in a police vehicle equipped with the right options, will be a more powerful and more affordable solution that most alternatives on the market. For example, a regular Pansonic Toughbook can cost upwards of $4000 USD whereas an equivalent G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer might cost between $2000-$2500 USD. Using the G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer as a mobile data terminal will provide significant savings when you take into account the number of police cars in the fleet need to be outfitted with in vehicle computers.
To complement our G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer we offer a handful of options and accessories which are designed specifically for the law enforcement computing market. For example, in a law enforcement application a regular LCD display won’t do. Police officers who are using a regular LCD display in a vehicle will find that it washes out and becomes hard to read in the sunlight. That is why we offer the G-NET sunlight readable LCD display; this transflective display is specifically designed for high visibility daytime viewing making it an ideal solution for police vehicle computer installation. In addition our mini wireless NEMA rated keyboards are completely rugged and spill proof making them nearly indestructible even when used in such a harsh vehicular application.
Client Case Study - The City Of Arlington, WA "Currently, the Arlington Police located in Washington State use the G-NET Vehicle Mount Computer for their Mobile Data Terminal. They use this primarily for Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD). The unit is mounted just below the center console for easy access to usb or pcmcia functionality. I have heard nothing but good things about this unit. Our offices have a “kill switch” on the mail console that shuts down all electronics. It is very nice to have the intelligent power supply, that is built into the GNet mobile PC to provide the graceful shutdown of the MDT. Over all I am very impressed with the ruggedness and durability of this product, and will continue to purchase these units. Attached are some pictures of the system inside one of our patrol cars."
