Capitol Connection

Mason’s all-digital instructional television and wireless cable system serves government agencies, law firms, news organizations, embassies, and corporate offices in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. The service is provided 24 hours a day, broadcasting C-SPAN, C-SPAN 2, C-SPAN 3, CNN, CNBC, MSNBC, Fox News Channel, and Bloomberg News. The Capitol Connection broadcasts the open meetings of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), and Mason telecourses for credit. It also provides its subscribers with all the local Washington, D.C., broadcast television stations.

In 1998, the Capitol Connection began webcasting audio and video coverage of the FCC, FERC, and National Transportation Safety Board meetings, as well as Mason courses for credit to viewers worldwide on the Internet. Now it provides webcasting services to associations, government agencies, and corporations. It also operates a satellite teleport in Fairfax providing uplink and downlink satellite television services for the university, the Fairfax County and Arlington County public schools, and government and news organizations in the Washington area.
