Healthcare & Senior Housing Solutions: OCC & Accu-Tech Partner to Offer a Complete End-to-End Solution.

The networks and data centers of many hospitals and healthcare facilities are stretched to capacity due to the influx of new and better medical technologies that require high-bandwidth and high-speed networks. Healthcare facilities are introducing the latest in telemedicine and video telemetry technologies. High-bandwidth imaging, such as MRIs and the latest in 64-320 slice CAT Scan technologies and the conversation of hard copy medical records to digital add to the bandwidth stress as well.

Wireless connectivity is crucial for nurses and hospital staff, as well as for many thousands of visitors. OCC provides the mission-critical connectivity for the strongest high-speed LAN backbone and wireless infrastructures. The superior transmission properties and robustness of OCC cables and connectivity solutions also minimize network failures and maintenance problems, allowing for less frequency in accessing floors or ceilings that can harbor pathogens compromising the health and safety of patients and staff.

The senior living industry must accommodate ever-growing high-bandwidth applications, such as Wireless Access Points (WAP), distributed antenna systems (DAS), resident tracking, emergency help stations, access control, and HD video security. The more challenging your low voltage cabling system becomes, the more challenging it is to know which products to use, how to budget them, and how to design for the future.

According to the US Census Bureau, by the year 2050, the nation’s 65 and older population is projected to reach 83.7 million, almost double the 2012 population of 43.1 million. This huge demographic shift will continue to feed increased demand for larger and more diverse senior living communities. These communities include independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing care, and continuing care retirement communities (CCRC).
