14 WISPAPALOOZA SHOW I OCTOBER 13 – 16, 2025 www.bekabusinessmedia.com DAY 1 Actelis Networks Inc., a market leader in cyber-hardened, rapid deployment networking solutions for IoT and broadband applications, announced it has received an approximately $500,000 order from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to provide advanced hybrid-fiber networking solutions for critical air traffic control infrastructure modernization. The order is for the initial deployment of Actelis’ Unique MacSec-Encrypted networking solution and comes as part of the FAA’s broader modernization initiative following Congress’ approval of $12.5 billion in dedicated funding through the Trump Administration’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” signed in July. This landmark legislation specifically allocates $4.75 billion for telecommunications infrastructure improvements, positioning advanced networking solutions like those provided by Actelis at the center of America’s multi-year, multi-billion-dollar aviation infrastructure transformation that could ultimately require investments exceeding $30 billion, according to recent reports. The order represents an initial deployment that demonstrates how Actelis’ technology can help the FAA solve its multi-billion-dollar infrastructure upgrade problem overnight—at a fraction of the cost of new infrastructure— as there is no need for the major costs and delays involved in deploying new fiber infrastructure everywhere as the FAA continues implementing its comprehensive air traffic control modernization program. The company’s proven track record with federal aviation authorities and its unique technological advantages position it well to support additional phases of the FAA’s infrastructure transformation initiative. This order demonstrates Actelis’ continued strategic role in supporting the FAA’s comprehensive air traffic control system upgrades, building upon the company’s established relationship with the agency dating back to 2020. The deployment will enhance secure, reliable connectivity across FAA facilities and airports, enabling fiber-grade performance regardless of existing infrastructure while maintaining the highest cybersecurity standards required for mission-critical aviation operations. The order was facilitated through Actelis’ partnership with IP Integration, a leading provider of advanced technology solutions for federal agencies. “This order validates Actelis’ critical role in modernizing America’s air traffic control infrastructure,” said Tuvia Barlev, chairman and CEO of Actelis Networks. “Recent communication disruptions at major airports have highlighted the urgent need for reliable, cyber-secure networking solutions that can deliver immediate improvements without requiring complete infrastructure overhauls. Our technology enables the FAA to achieve fiber-grade connectivity and military-level security across diverse facility environments, supporting the safe and efficient management of our nation’s airspace.” The company’s hybrid-fiber technology addresses key challenges facing aviation infrastructure modernization by providing immediate deployment capabilities that work Actelis Networks Receives Strategic Order From FAA (Story Continues on pg 15)
