Hawaii State Capitol complex now all-wireless
The Hawaii State Capitol facility is now completely wireless as the second phase of a $400,000 project earmarked for unwiring the legislative facility has been completed.
The first part of the project provided wireless access to all of the House and Senate conference rooms and print shops, the Capitol Auditorium, and corridors along the railings on the second, third and fourth floors. The recently completed phase now will allow for all legislative member offices, chambers, and inner corridors the ability to link into the network as well.
This certainly bodes well for similar types of niche wireless networks, particularly in government or business complexes where there is enough of a potential user base to support it. Whether this kind of project would expand outward to the citizenship at large is another matter, but this could spark activity among wireless providers to seek similar opportunities.
