Actelis Networks has announced that it has received a follow-on order for the expansion of its hybrid-fibre networking technology for a Major German Municipality. This order comes on the backdrop of previously announced orders and deployments across many sectors, including highways and ITS, utilities, airports and the military.
“The need for both speed and security in IoT network modernisation has never been more critical,” said Tuvia Barlev, the chairman and CEO of Actelis. “Our hybrid-fibre technology not only allows cities and operators to upgrade their networks quickly and cost-effectively, but also fortifies them against emerging cyber threats. This expanded partnership in Germany reflects the growing confidence in Actelis to deliver scalable, secure solutions that are essential for the resilience and functionality of critical infrastructure.”
In Germany, critical infrastructure spending is on the rise as the country aims to enhance resilience and drive economic growth. In 2024 alone, over 30 billion euros were allocated for federal highways, waterways and railroads, underscoring Germany’s commitment to modernization. The government’s National Strategy for Critical Infrastructure Protection further highlights the importance of safeguarding vital systems while addressing existing vulnerabilities. By adopting Actelis’ solution, cities are accelerating project completion while ensuring long-term security for their infrastructure. This expansion order in Germany reflects Actelis growing presence in the intelligent transportation space. Notably, earlier this month, Actelis announced the expansion of Expansion Order for Major Italian National Transportation Infrastructure Project, also in the field of Intelligent Transportation.
Actelis’ solution supports a wide range of smart city applications by providing secure, high-speed, long-range connectivity for traffic management, public safety, utilities, public WiFi and municipal broadband services. The technology allows cities to save both time and money by using existing network wiring to deliver fibre-grade data transmission, regardless of the type of infrastructure in place. By eliminating the need for extensive engineering, digging, or trenching, projects are completed faster and at significantly lower costs compared to installing new wiring.
The company is also bolstering its data protection offering for smart cities and IoT operators. In August, Actelis announced a partnership with an advanced cybersecurity provider to develop and deliver a novel, AI-Powered SaaS offering, under Actelis’ ‘Cyber Aware Networking’ initiative. Designed as an intelligence layer integrated into Actelis’ networking devices, the solution identifies anomalies in the network in real-time and enables operators to prevent further threats.
“We’re enabling multi-layer protection for critical infrastructure networks, starting with threat identification and equipping operators with the tools and insights needed to safeguard their networks against future attacks,” said Barlev.
