SPRINGFIELD, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Spok, Inc. announced today the release of its new T5
solution, a select pager with an encrypted paging option. With
secure messaging capabilities and display-lock security features, this
device provides a powerful tool for healthcare and emergency response
communication.
“Security and reliability are vital for organizations that are managing
highly sensitive information, especially in a clinical situation that
requires HIPAA compliance,” said Vincent D. Kelly, president and chief
executive officer of Spok Holdings, Inc. “This device is designed to be
an integral part of any critical communication solution, and we’re
pleased that Spok has the exclusive rights to sell and service this
pager.”
“We have been using the Spok T5 pagers for several months and are
impressed with their encryption capabilities,” said Renan Lyon, telecom
administrator for Froedtert Hospital in Milwaukee. “Protecting the
exchange of sensitive information as staff care for patients is critical
for our organization. Spok has enabled us to achieve this goal with the
T5.”
Providing reliable messaging service in a small, convenient package, the
T5 has a user-friendly, icon-driven interface, easy-to-read screen, and
long battery life. It offers encrypted message support, remote data
wipe, and display-lock security features.
“As has been demonstrated in a number of emergency situations, cellular
networks are not always dependable,” said Kelly. “Even with the
proliferation of smartphones, wireless paging systems remain a valuable
part of an overall mobile communication strategy for the medical and
first response sectors.”
