Actelis Networks shares surge 25.39% premarket after securing $200K T1 upgrade order from major U.S. carrier.

Actelis Networks (NASDAQ: ASNS) surged 25.39% in premarket trading following the announcement of a $200,000 order from a major U.S. carrier to expand its MetaLIGHT 650SV platform deployment. The order, marking the carrier’s third update since December 2025, reflects rapid adoption of Actelis’ T1-to-fiber modernization solution, with several hundred units already deployed and hundreds of thousands of additional connections eligible for future upgrades. The momentum aligns with the Federal Communications Commission’s push to accelerate copper-network retirements, underscoring the urgency for infrastructure upgrades. CEO Tuvia Barlev highlighted the deployment as a “foundation for potential large-scale network modernization programs,” emphasizing the carrier’s confidence in Actelis’ technology and the multi-year growth opportunity.
