Leveraging Cisco’s Medical-Grade Network, Presidio’s new healthcare offerings are designed to take advantage of recent developments in wireless local area networks and radio frequency identification technologies, enabling functionality such as improved asset management and remote temperature monitoring, said Presidio.

Presidio’s healthcare portfolio incorporates solutions, including improved digital imaging access and system performance; unified visibility solutions for asset monitoring and management; unified Communications application solutions including event alerting and notification and quality assurance and compliance.
