Why Wireless Emergency Towers Are the Future of Campus Safety — And How TS&L Is Leading the Way
May 18, 2025

In a world where safety can’t be compromised, outdated emergency systems are no longer acceptable. Across the Southeast, campuses, parks, municipalities, and hospitals are facing a common challenge: how to modernize public safety infrastructure without breaking the budget or waiting months for trenching and electrical work. That’s where Transportation Solutions & Lighting (TS&L) is rewriting the playbook.

We’re not just keeping up with the future of safety — we’re leading it.

The Problem with Traditional Blue Light Systems

Hard-wired emergency towers and call boxes were once the gold standard. But today, they come with serious limitations:

  • Costly and time-consuming trenching
  • Inflexible power and network requirements
  • Delays from permitting and underground work
  • Inconsistent performance and outdated maintenance schedules

Too many systems sit broken or unmonitored until it’s too late — offering a false sense of security instead of real protection.

TS&L’s Wireless Solution: Fast, Flexible, and Future-Proof

At TS&L, we deliver turnkey wireless safety systems that eliminate the red tape. Our solar-powered, cellular-enabled emergency towers are deployed in a fraction of the time of traditional systems — and with no need to dig or hardwire.

From brand-new installations to retrofits of existing towers, we offer:

✅ Daily remote monitoring — so you never need to manually test units again
✅ Industry-leading 10-day battery backup — ensuring operation even during outages
✅ Fully wireless systems — reducing costs by up to 60% compared to trenching
✅ Fast deployment — often installed in just days, not months

We make safety smarter, faster, and more reliable.

Why Solar + Cellular = The New Standard

TS&L’s systems are built to perform in any environment. With solar power and cellular connectivity, your campus stays protected:

  • No electrical hookup? No problem.
  • No local Wi-Fi? We’ve got you covered.
  • Power outage? Still online.

Whether it's a campus walkway, remote parking lot, or public park, our emergency towers stand ready — rain or shine, day or night.
