{{Short description|Telecommunications engineering ability}}

In [[telecommunications]], '''communications survivability''' is the ability of [[communications system]]s to continue to operate effectively under adverse conditions, though portions of the [[system]] may be damaged or destroyed. 

Various methods may be used to maintain communications services, such as using [[alternate routing]], different [[transmission (telecommunications)|transmission]] media or methods, redundant equipment, and sites and equipment that are [[radiation hardened]].
