Schools & Universities support in California
Schools and universities are critical facilities where ERRCS protects students, faculty, and staff. Campus environments with multiple buildings, underground tunnels, athletic facilities, and varying construction types create complex coverage requirements. Active shooter scenarios have heightened awareness of the need for reliable first responder communications in educational settings.
