Le Sfide

  • CCAT wanted an interoperable enterprise-class infrastructure to provide services, including Voice Over IP (VoIP), hosting and video streaming to 26 towns using Connecticut’s high-speed fiber optic Nutmeg Network. 
  • As CCAT enables important services and functions, such as police dispatch, it required a robust and redundant solution and disaster recovery to ensure business continuity.  
  • As a nonprofit, CCAT needed a budget-conscious solution without compromising on quality.
