Term is short for installation of shared infrastructure

RIO - The Confederations Cup begins on June 15, but the airports of the host cities are at risk of running out of 4G coverage during the competition. The contract between INFRAERO and mobile operators was only signed at the end of last month and the deadline for the installation of the network is considered short.

- Until the Confederations Cup gives no more - said the director of the Living Networks, Hercules Braga on the deployment of 4G network in airports.

Phone operators had until April 30 to provide the service in at least 50% of the urban area of the six cities hosting the Confederations Cup. However, the coverage of airports not included in the commitment made to the National Telecommunications Agency.

The installation of the 4G network at airports will follow the model that is being implemented in stages. Operators, together, will share part of the system, to reduce costs and facilitate the implementation of projects.

- The idea is to redo all the coverage, a single system shared by all operators - Braga explains.

According to the CTO of Vivo, Leonardo Capdeville, operators plan to rebuild the telecommunications infrastructure of airports not only to implement the 4G, but to improve the 2G and 3G networks.

- For the World Cup, we will surely 4G. For the Confederations Cup may have a palliative measure. The project is a medium term. We are making every effort, but it will be difficult to finish the installation before the competition - says Capdeville.

INFRAERO reports that met last week with representatives of the operators.
At the meeting it was agreed that the telcos will still submit a schedule of equipment installation.
