In conjunction with Airgain’s antenna solutions, Axon’s in-car and on-officer video technologies can help save lives and reduce injuries in multiple ways. Axon body cameras help deescalate interactions and provide immediate safety alerts and evidence access. The solution is seamlessly connected in real-time over dedicated wireless networks, so public safety customers can focus on what matters – people, not paperwork.

“Axon is leading the way with innovative public safety video solutions that rely on a quality wireless connection to deliver maximum impact. However, customers need not only great technical solutions, but demand fast delivery times and great long-term reliability,” said Reed Pangborn, Vice President, Channel Sales North America at Airgain. “Axon’s choice of Airgain as their exclusive partner for Fleet 2 confirms our ability to deliver an industry-leading antenna, built in the USA, that meets and exceeds customer needs. We’re especially proud that two Arizona-based companies are working so closely together to provide law enforcement agencies with critical connectivity solutions to assure safety and certainty in the field.”

“Axon has worked with the team at Airgain for some time and has seen first-hand their ability to deliver excellent antenna solutions for first responders and public sector customers across North America,” said Trey Mills, Senior Product Manager at Axon. “After evaluating other manufacturers in the space, we are delighted to make them the exclusive antenna partner for Axon Fleet 2.”

The antennas for Axon’s Fleet 2 solution are designed and built to order in Scottsdale, Arizona, only three miles from Axon headquarters. This combination enables Airgain to quickly design and build custom antennas to match Axon’s exact requirements, with an industry-leading short lead time.
