Wired radio may return to residential buildings in Russia.
Russia plans to maintain and develop wired radio broadcasting networks. It is proposed to include the corresponding measures in the development strategy of the communications industry, Izbastia reports with reference to the Ministry of Digital Development.
The main task is to provide a reliable warning to the population in emergency situations. Unlike the Internet and cellular communication, wired radio can work even if there is a power outage at home. In addition, such a system is resistant to interference and cyber attacks.
They plan to pay special attention to apartment buildings, where about 70% of Russians live. The Ministry of Digital Development states that cable transmission allows emergency messages to be delivered in a targeted manner and at a minimal cost.
