Government, defence & critical comms

TXO provides secure, mission-critical telecom solutions for government, defence, and public safety. From network modernisation and EOSL support to asset recovery and critical infrastructure deployments, we help operators maintain and transition secure communications networks.

Transforming technology for a sustainable future

Secure, resilient, and mission-critical telecommunications networks are essential for government, defence, and critical communications. From national security and emergency response to public sector infrastructure and military communications, organisations require robust, future-ready networks that comply with strict regulatory and security standards.

At TXO, we provide full-circle support, helping organisations optimise, manage, deploy, and resell their telecom technology. Our extensive experience across the public sector, defence, and critical communications industries ensures that operators can modernise infrastructure, maintain secure networks, and transition to next-generation solutions while minimising cost and environmental impact.

Optimise – building resilient, future-proof networks

We help government and defence organisations optimise their telecom networks by transitioning from outdated infrastructure, improving security, and ensuring long-term operational efficiency.

  • Network modernisation & rationalisation – Migration from legacy systems like BT Kilostream to modern, secure, high-performance networks.
  • Secure critical communications for defence & public safety – Support for ship-to-shore, air-to-ground, satellite, and emergency response communications.
  • Spectrum transition & compliance – Solutions for spectrum reallocation, including the 1.4GHz migration for 5G and OFCOM frequency licensing.
  • Urban mining & asset recovery – Recovering and recycling copper, critical components, and valuable materials from decommissioned infrastructure.

Manage – ensuring 24/7 mission-critical support

Government and defence telecom networks require high-availability, secure support to ensure uninterrupted service, regulatory compliance, and operational resilience. TXO provides expert lifecycle management to extend the longevity of critical infrastructure.

  • 24/7 proactive network monitoring & secure telecom maintenance – Minimising downtime and ensuring continuous network reliability.
  • Spare parts management & secure logistics – Providing reliable access to critical components for ongoing maintenance and emergency replacements.
  • End-of-service-life (EOSL) support – Extending the lifespan of essential network hardware beyond OEM support, reducing unnecessary replacements.

Deploy – delivering secure, high-performance telecom solutions

Seamless network expansion, infrastructure upgrades, and technology rollouts are essential for public sector, defence, and emergency response organisations. TXO ensures a smooth, secure, and efficient deployment of new and upgraded systems.

  • Engineering-led network design & installation – Supporting public safety, air traffic control, defence, and emergency communications networks.
  • Secure pre-build & staging – Configuring, integrating, and testing telecom systems in a controlled environment before deployment.
  • Next-generation defence technology integration – Supporting IPSEC, GRE, AES-256 encryption, and secure satellite communications.

Resell – recovering value from surplus telecom technology

Government and defence organisations frequently upgrade and decommission legacy telecom infrastructure. TXO provides secure asset recovery, resale, and urban mining solutions, helping organisations monetise surplus equipment while supporting environmental sustainability.

  • Asset recovery & resale – Secure, compliant decommissioning with financial returns.
  • Urban mining & sustainable disposal – Recovering copper, precious metals, and high-value components, reducing reliance on raw material extraction.
  • A global marketplace for renewed technology – Maximising the lifecycle of mission-critical telecom assets across international markets.
