Important for your Business Continuity
The strength of our communication networks are measured by service interruption. In an emergency situation, this is a vital component for survivability to connect people and organizations through protected networks. Our speaker from Time Warner Telecom, Christopher Gaffney, Vice President and General Manager of the Florida region, will talk about next-generation technology and the solutions designed to support and protect the growing infrastructure of the South Florida networks.
