📋 Tender Overview
With an investment of US $ 2.4 million, the new circuit will have an extension of 120 km and will have a main line and another backup.As part of its commitment to air security and modernization of its services, the Peruvian Corporation of Airports and Commercial Aviation (CORPAC) will install a new monomodo fiber optic network from June that will interconnect all aeronautical systems and electronic equipment used on the two landing tracks of the Jorge Chavez International Airport. It will also link the new control tower, the new passenger terminal and the Radar Control Center, from where all air traffic in Peruvian territory is supervised.
With an extension of 120 kilometers of fiber optics in a double circuit -one main and another reserve or redundancy that will operate in case the first one fails -the new system was acquired through ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) with an investment of 2.4 million dollars (8.8 million soles).
The new network will replace the current system, which has been in operation for about 15 years. Both the main and redundant circuit will be installed along a network of mailboxes already existing in some sections and in new roads in areas of the new track and the new passenger terminal. In addition, the fiber optics to be installed will be monomodo type, which allows the transmission of waves at different frequencies, which achieves great efficiency in the transmission of data at long distances and high speeds.
The installation of the new network will be carried out between the months of June and December of this year, without implying any interruption of the air traffic control service.
Among the most relevant benefits of this implementation are data transmission in real time and at high speed, simultaneous connectivity without congestion or loss of information, greater resistance to electromagnetic interferences and adverse conditions. In technical terms, the new fiber optic network is a robust infrastructure that allows the integration of advanced technologies.
With the acquisition and installation of this new system, Corpac reaffirms its commitment to the safety of aviation, the modernization of the national aeronautical and airport system and the continuous improvement of the services provided to all Peruvians and visitors of the country.
