00:00When he viajado to the Amazonia, he failed the internet connection.
00:02That could change with a project that seeks to cross the rivers of the region with large cables of optics.
00:07It would be approximately 1.600 km of red that would be spread by the river Putumayo and other 70
00:13km from the river Amazonas.
00:14According Karina Murcia, Ministra of the STIC, the initiative would allow to connect around 100.000 homes of the Amazonia
00:20Colombian.
00:21Leticia, Tarapacá, Puerto Nariño, El Encanto, Puerto Leguizamo and San Miguel would be some of the municipalities.
00:27But still takes time, the first services would be available for the inhabitants from the 2028.
00:33At the moment, the Ministra of the STIC is advancing on the definitive pliegue that will present at the end
00:37of this month, of the public solicitation of this project.
00:40In a preliminary way, there are 46 providers, both national and international, interested in the initiative,
00:46among which are large companies such as Claro Colombia and ETV.
00:49But this still doesn't imply formal offers, nor generates rights or obligations contractuals.
00:54The challenges of this project are not menores.
00:57The Mintic recognizes its complex logistics and environmental,
01:00in which it describes as one of the most sensitive and remote ecosystems of the planet.
01:04For installing these cables in a river like the Amazonas,
01:06the most caudalous of the world, are required technologies specialized,
01:10as well as to make previous studies to make a profile of the river and understand their behavior.
01:14But one of the most complex issues is perhaps the lack of operative windows,
01:19that is, the fact that during several months these rivers can be inaccessible due to the changes in their level.
01:24An example is what occurred in 2024, when the project Infovia 02 of the Norte Conectado program
01:30of Brazil, which was connected to Colombia, had to postpone.
01:34Due to the intense sequia that was presented during the last months of the year,
01:37the boats could not travel to transport and deploy the cables.
01:41This will be still more challenging during the time of maintenance,
01:44because the network will now manage a large amount of traffic,
01:46connected markets and basically become a critical infrastructure for the countries and its operators.
01:51If you want to know more about this project, write the news in the comments
01:55and we send the whole story to the UDM.
02:21the UDM.
02:22The referent thing is to talk to EarthSense.
02:22So the budget is the right, it is the left, it is the right, it is the right.
02:22So this is absolutely the right, it is the right, it is the right.
02:22So the next project that troops in the UDM
02:22The UDM is very much more challenging and the right, it is the right.
02:23The UDM.
