Lathem releases a revolutionary new wireless synchronous wall clock system designed to address the precise timekeeping needs of businesses and industries such as education, healthcare and transportation which currently rely on hard-wired clock solutions.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) April 6, 2009 -- Lathem is proud to announce the release of a revolutionary new wireless synchronous wall clock system called AirTime. This innovative system is designed to address the precise timekeeping needs of businesses and industries such as education, healthcare and transportation which currently rely on hard-wired clock solutions. With ease of installation and simplicity in mind, AirTime offers accurate time throughout a facility without the cost or complication of running wires to each clock location. AirTime is an FCC approved system, with a nationally licensed UHF frequency designed specifically for use in commercial structures.

"Synchronized time is crucial in any fast paced environment. Schools, hospitals, airports and other large institutions rely on consistent time from clock to clock in order to operate smoothly and maximize efficiency," said Donna Lathem, AirTime national sales manager. "With AirTime, every clock is accurate to the second, and wireless correction eliminates the constraints and costs of pre-wiring a facility."

AirTime saves money by eliminating the need for costly wiring, making it an ideal solution for new or expanding facilities. A single AirTime transceiver can communicate time to an unlimited number of clocks in an entire building, and even across a large campus. Unique to the industry, AirTime also offers battery-powered mini transceivers that provide an affordable wireless solution for small businesses, and can be linked together to extend coverage as needs grow.

AirTime System Features:

-- Wireless & synchronous time (to the millisecond) from clock to clock
-- A variety of wall clocks featuring precision movements and smooth sweeping second hands
-- Automatic Daylight Saving Time adjustment
-- Flexible time reference sources such as GPS, WWVB, computer networks, and more
-- Reliable radio signal transmission in commercial buildings (brick, steel, concrete, etc.)
-- Simple installation and affordable expansion

The AirTime System is available through a nationwide network of independent dealers that provide on-site installation and service. Every AirTime product is backed by a full one-year manufacturer's warranty.
