1 Government Network and Communications Infrastructure for Federal Government

2 Federal Government Network Infrastructure Challenges Network and communications infrastructures are mission-critical elements for the government. Security, reliability, energy efficiency and real-time information are concerns at all levels of government federal, state and local. Agency branches and facilities require a faster way to access important and real-time information while maintaining a communications infrastructure that is reliable and intelligent. While security and energy efficiency are challenges, budgets and safeguarding future investments are also concerns for all levels of government. Specialized solutions are available for mission-critical environments to assure information retrieval and accuracy. Requirements for ultra-fast solutions support broadband, cellular, RF and Ethernet applications and are vital to real-time information needs and emerging solutions. CommScope solutions are flexible; they can respond rapidly to changing missions. As the mission evolves, so does the infrastructure. CommScope delivers the right solutions and services that allow agencies to do both upgrade their physical infrastructure with higher-capacity solutions while addressing today s mounting security, energy conservation and budget issues. A world leader in communications technology, CommScope manufactures reliable, secure, fast communications and networking solutions, providing the information assurance and security that the federal government needs. 2
