Internet For Military Defence And Government (Secure P2P Links)
When national security is involved, the public internet is not an option.
Sensitive data, classified communications and mission critical operations need infrastructure that is fundamentally different from anything shared with the general public. That is why defence and government organisations across the UK and beyond use dedicated microwave point to point (P2P) links to keep their communications private, controlled and entirely separate from public networks.
At APC Solutions, we have been deploying microwave radio links for over ten years. We understand what high security environments actually need, and we build connectivity solutions that deliver exactly that.

Private By Design, Not Just By Contract
There are two ways to transmit data between locations. You can send it over someone else’s internet network, or you can keep it within a private PTP network you fully control. For most everyday business use, the public internet is fine. When the sensitivity of what you are transmitting changes, so does that calculation.
A microwave point to point link works like a direct cable between two locations, except a dedicated encrypted radio signal is transmitted between two fixed antennas rather than through any shared infrastructure. That signal never passes through a public exchange or third party network. It travels directly from one point to another and stays entirely within your own controlled environment.
Because the beam is narrow and directed, the risk of interception is dramatically lower than any solution built on shared infrastructure. The signal is encrypted end to end and your data never enters a public network. This level of control is simply not possible when relying on external or shared network infrastructure.
A traditional leased line, by comparison, still runs through underground infrastructure that is shared and managed externally. A microwave P2P link removes that dependency entirely and gives your organisation something a leased line simply cannot: a connection that is private by design.
Security Standard
Our solutions are built to align with recognised UK and US government security standards, supporting deployment in high security and defence environments.

How Military And Government Organisations Use Secure Microwave Links
This is where it matters most. Organisations use it for:
- Secure communication between bases, outposts and remote facilities where public internet access is unavailable or cannot be trusted
- Transferring sensitive or classified data between sites
- Maintaining independent communications infrastructure in controlled environments
- Providing resilient connectivity that holds up under adverse or hostile conditions
Microwave point to point technology is widely used in military operations around the world and forms the backbone of battlefield, border and garrison communications for defence organisations globally.
Fast To Deploy, Built For Mission Critical Operations
One of the most operationally significant advantages of a microwave P2P link is how quickly it can be established. Because there is no civil works required, no trenches to dig and no leased infrastructure to provision, a link between two sites can often be fully operational within two weeks. In environments where time is part of the operational picture, that matters as much as the security credentials.

Full Site WiFi Coverage Guarantee
Your connection is guaranteed to reach every point between your sites, with no dead zones, no signal drop and no reliance on third party infrastructure. Your data travels on a private, dedicated beam between two fixed antennas.
Operational Within Two Weeks
Because there are no civil works required and no trenches to dig, we can have your microwave P2P link fully operational in as little as two weeks. In time-sensitive environments, that speed of deployment matters as much as the security credentials.
End To End Encrypted Security
Every link we deploy is encrypted end to end, meaning your data never passes through a public exchange or shared infrastructure. It stays entirely within your controlled environment from the moment it leaves one site to the moment it arrives at the other.
