Announcement posted by Nortel 11 Jun 2005
The new City Halls communications infrastructure from Nortel converges multiple networks into one that provides voice, data, wireless, multimedia, video conferencing and Internet Protocol (IP) capabilities. It also allows city officials to communicate as effectively away from their offices as they would sitting at their desks. The Nortel communications solution provides leading-edge security for the City of San Jose, enabling more productive collaboration among city officials and citizens and enhanced protection against viruses, hackers and other security threats.
We greatly appreciate this opportunity to work together with the City of San Jose to provide enhanced communications that will serve as a foundation for building closer working relationships between the City and its citizens, said Malcolm Collins, president, Enterprise Networks, Nortel. It is a testament to our valued relationship that we delivered this network on time and on budget. We look forward to continuing our relationship with the City of San Jose to ensure uninterrupted and enhanced communications support at the new City Hall.
Nortel is a leading provider of government solutions worldwide with the broadest portfolio in the industry, leveraging expertise in new technologies like IP telephony, virtual private networks, Optical Ethernet, advanced multiservice switching and wireless local area networks.
