CASE STUDY
Jhon Richard Martín , Head of Cabling for the Andean and Central America region , Furukawa Electric , said : “ The work carried out by Furukawa Electric for Posorja can be developed because it has references from previous projects at ports such as Santos and Callao . The work with the company has been carried out and continues , thanks to other projects with DP World , since the same standard has been maintained and new business continues to advance .”
In addition to the fiber optic interconnection between the dock and the administrative center , cabling was supplied for the outdoor , indoor and DPL spaces , as well as all the optical accessories .
THE WORK WITH THE COMPANY HAS BEEN
CARRIED OUT AND CONTINUES , THANKS TO OTHER PROJECTS WITH
DP WORLD .
The key to the entire project is connectivity , so the fiber optic rings are the backbone of all the systems that work at the port . Thanks to these , the Posorja port has an industrial-type Wi-Fi connection , which means it has very low latencies and replication and synchronization of information between two online data centers .
Guillermo Veintimilla , IT Manager , DP World Posorja , said : “ Furukawa ’ s added value is in its vast portfolio of products and services for this type of industry , as well as its warranty support , training and knowledge transfer , which gives the customer peace of mind .”
Benefits
The main objective of the port is to be a safe one , therefore , with the technology that was implemented in the online systems and the Wi-Fi , among other developments , customers and employees no longer have to travel to the port to carry out their transactions and can obtain information immediately .
Veintimilla said : “ There are two reasons why these projects are developed : the first to be an example of evolution and progress for Ecuador , and the second is related to the technological aspect , since it must have global suppliers that provide a portfolio of high-quality products and solutions while at the same time demonstrating they are professionals in terms of support .
“ For this reason , it is worth highlighting Furukawa ´ s accomplishments , for DP World it is an added value that generated peace of mind both in developing the port in Posorja and in developing the Logistics Center in Durán .” p
