Actelis Networks has announced that it has received a US$200,000 order from the United States Department of Military Affairs to supply a US Army National Guard base with its cyber-hardened hybrid-fibre networking solution. Actelis continues to build on its momentum in the federal government sector, having just recently announced an order from a US Department of Aerial Transportation agency. This follows a US$150,000 order in July from a tier-1 military contractor to deliver the company’s advanced GigaLine 800 solution to US military bases.Actelis was chosen for its ability to instantly deliver higher bandwidth compared to the base’s legacy system, without requiring any upgrades to the existing physical cabling. By opting for Actelis’ hybrid-fibre networking solution, the base network can achieve the necessary bandwidth immediately, saving substantial time and costs on engineering and construction. Actelis’ cyber-hardened solution is uniquely positioned as the only solution of its kind listed on the Department of Defense’s Approved Products List (APL), having earned both JITC and NIST certifications for FIPS compliance. This distinction gives government agencies confidence that their networks are safeguarded by a solution rigorously tested to meet the highest cybersecurity standards protected against cyber vulnerabilities.
“Military bases are increasingly recognising the immediate value we provide by using their existing network infrastructure,” said Tuvia Barlev, the chairman and CEO of Actelis. “Bases can achieve fibre-grade connectivity for their current operations very fast, while also future-proofing their systems to accommodate additional devices and technologies—without the constraints of outdated bandwidth limitations.”
The National Guard base this order relates to supports hundreds of state and government employees, as well as housing for thousands of Army personnel. To ensure efficient on-base operations, the base required a significant network upgrade. Military facilities depend on high-speed, reliable communications for critical applications such as internet services, Voice over IP (VoIP) systems, access control, surveillance and HVAC monitoring. With the existing network unable to meet growing bandwidth demands, the base turned to Actelis for a robust, future-ready solution.
