Challenges
Government is a major user of communications infrastructure worldwide, and by its very nature, requires secure, robust and efficient communications infrastructure. Government operations require voice and data connectivity between county and federal government agencies, city halls, libraries, public safety agencies and other government facilities. Furthermore, with the advent of Wi-Fi and WiMAX technologies, municipalities are embracing wireless access technology as a means to bridge the digital divide and bolster economic growth through increased tourism and business investment. Public safety and disaster relief organizations are also heavily relying on wireless technologies for instant networks and communications, control of infrastructure, reliability, and security.
