Broadband fiber optics enhances public safety information and procedures for improved efficiency in the public interest. Benefits include:

• Broadband fiber optics enhances public safety information and procedures for improved efficiency in the public interest
• Early warning public alert systems and disaster preparation programs as well as back-up systems for public safety communications networks
• Safety benefits that can be passed on to the public through instantaneous access to information in times of crisis
• Fiber networks’ inherent signal security, making them difficult to tap
• Enabling advanced telecommunication systems to be implemented so that the public have access to public service operation centers
• Increased speed – as much as 400 times faster – at which data transfer functions between municipality headquarters for example and field projects can be accomplished, saving time and money and enabling better decision-making in the public’s interest
