Now the document will be submitted for acceptance to the Government of the Russian Federation.

Passive communication devices divided into two groups: fiber optic communication cables and its cable boxes for an installation. In addition, the section that accountable for management and monitoring systems will also be supplemented with a new subparagraph about technical devices to counter threats.
