Hilton’s Electronic Security installs point-to-point wireless links across Central Pennsylvania on properties where running cable is expensive, disruptive, or simply not permitted. A camera on a far gate, a card reader on a detached shop, a second building across a parking lot, all of it can come back to your main network over a wireless bridge instead of a trench.
We survey the line of sight first, check for anything that will interfere, and mount the radios where weather and vibration will not pull them out of alignment. Then we bring the link onto your network properly, so the cameras and panels on the far end behave exactly like the ones inside the building.
A wireless link is a small job with a lot of detail behind it, and most of the detail decides whether the link is still solid in three years. Here is what we handle on a standard installation, from the first look at the property through to handover.
Most clients come to us after seeing a quote for trenching and conduit. The wireless route usually costs less, goes in faster, and leaves the parking lot intact. It also holds up over time, which is the part people ask about first.

The points that come up most often once a wireless link is on the table.
On a clear line of sight, several miles is realistic with the right radios. Most commercial links we install are far shorter than that, a few hundred feet across a yard or between two buildings on the same property.
Trees, new construction, and terrain all matter, which is why we survey before we quote. If the direct path is obstructed we can often relay through a third mount point rather than abandon the idea.
The link is encrypted and carries your traffic the same way a buried cable would. We also segment it on your network, so a camera on the far end cannot reach anything it has no business reaching.
Properly specified hardware runs through rain, snow, and wind without dropping. Alignment is what tends to fail first, so we mount to structure rather than to anything that flexes.
Yes. We size the link to the number of cameras and the resolution you are recording, with headroom, so footage does not stutter when every camera is streaming at once.
Fiber is the better answer when the trench is short and easy. Once you are crossing a paved lot, a road, or a property line, the excavation usually costs more than the entire wireless link.
Tell us where the two ends sit and roughly how far apart they are, and we will come out and look at the path. If a wireless link will work, we will tell you what it takes. If it will not, we will say so and price the alternative instead.
