Network Infrastructure Solutions for Airports

Communication networks are vital to the operation of any airport. They support business and life-dependant operational systems, while also providing timely management data to support decisionmaking. In recent years, the number of network applications specific to the air travel industry has grown dramatically, far beyond traditional data and voice. With new airports being designed from the ground up, structured cabling for all applications has become an integral part of building design from the earliest stages.

Airport Cabling Challenges – Why CommScope?

Airports are unusually demanding environments for technology. Tenants are constantly moving from one location to the next. Distances between central data facilities and end cabling points can be massive, such as the lengths needed for runway installations. Hazardous liquids (like aviation fuel) pose significant threats to traditional cabling features such as PVC cabling sheaths. Given these challenges and many more, cabling within these applications needs a provider with keen insight into the distinctiveness of the airport environment.

CommScope is that provider. A world leader in infrastructure solutions for communication networks, we have developed solutions that are customized to the challenges of airport functionality — like our security-tough, stress-optimized SYSTIMAX® Heavy Duty Indoor/Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable for Airport Applications.

CommScope has more than 130 airports and airline industry reference installations across the United States and around the world, to mention a few: Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Hungary, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom, Ireland, Luxembourg, Russia, Nigeria, Qatar, Egypt, UAE, Saudi Arabia, China, Hong Kong, Singapore and South Korea.
