The entity responsible for the identification and registration of all Peruvians residing in the country. The contract lays the foundation for the company's presence in Latin America and consolidates its international expansion, which began a couple of years ago.
This agreement falls within the Peruvian government's strategy to bring broadband to all geographic areas of the country, overcoming what they call the digital divide. Specifically, Fibernet's work consists of a turnkey project for the interconnection of two data centers, in which the company will be responsible for the supply, installation, and commissioning of the equipment, as well as subsequent maintenance. This initiative falls within the "Disaster Recovery" framework, with dual DWDM infrastructure, duplicate equipment, and a dual optical path between the data centers.
In the words of Esther Gómez, General Manager of Fibernet, "Within our growth and outsourcing strategy, we have established phases and defined priorities. The initial step has been to start with the Peruvian market and from there expand to the rest of the countries," she states. “For us, signing this contract with RENIEC represents the realization of our first real project in Lima and serves as a launchpad for the rest of the Latin American markets. Our goal as a company is to achieve a 50/50 revenue split between the national and international markets in the medium term,” he adds.
The equipment supplied by Fibernet is state-of-the-art, with multiprotocol support up to 10 Gbps; while the implemented services include 8 Gbps F-Channel and Gigabit Ethernet links for extending its LAN data network. This way, RENIEC will have extra capacity available “on the fly” to add new services as data transport demand requires. And all this without the equipment adding latency to the inherent fiber optic distance. Therefore, the company offers native protocol transport so that data experiences minimal delay, equivalent to just a few meters of fiber optic cable. It should be noted that each kilometer of fiber adds 5 microseconds of latency to communications, due to the time it takes for light to travel through the fiber itself.
