ALGIM WEBINAR: Local Government Telecommunications Resilience in a Changing World

Councils are facing increasing uncertainty surrounding the impacts of changing environmental factors and weather events and the implications for communities. Providing resilient networks for telecommunications services requires a secure multi-faceted approach to provide the best experience and reduce disruption and unplanned outages. Enabling connectivity through mobile and fixed networks as well as satellite technology can enable critical voice and data communication  and potentially provide resilience and minimize disruption from unforeseen events. 

This webinar will give you valuable insights into Starlink, how it can help your Council and how this evolving technology augments traditional Telecommunications mobile and fixed networks. You’ll learn about the importance of backhaul and how it enhances reliance within networks. You’ll also learn about 5G and mobile services that can improve ways of working and lift productivity for all organisations
