Aire has chosen Keypro’s KeyCom GIS platform to centralize the management of its fiber optic network in Spain. The agreement will bring together the inventory of fiber assets deployed by the company in a single environment and give its engineering and operations teams a unified view of the infrastructure.
Aire’s fiber network management in 30 seconds
- Aire will roll out Keypro’s KeyCom as the central platform for managing its fiber network in Spain.
- The system will bring the company’s fiber asset inventory together in a single environment.
- The GIS technology will support planning, expansion, capacity, maintenance and incident management.
- Aire wants to improve coordination between teams and have more up-to-date technical information available.
- Keypro presents the platform as a tool capable of keeping pace with the growth of telecommunications infrastructure.
The partnership between Aire and Keypro focuses on one of the most operational aspects of a telecommunications network: having reliable information about where assets are located, how they are connected, and what capacity exists to keep expanding the infrastructure. To that end, Aire will adopt KeyCom as the central environment for managing its fiber optic network in the Spanish market.
The platform uses geographic information system (GIS) technology, a type of tool that links technical information to its geographic location. In Aire’s case, the goal is to consolidate the data associated with its fiber infrastructure and prevent that information from being scattered across different systems or departments.
A single view of the fiber infrastructure
Rolling out KeyCom will centralize the complete inventory of fiber assets deployed by Aire in Spain. According to the company, organizing the information this way will give engineering and operations teams a more precise and up-to-date view of the network.
Centralization also affects the processes tied to the lifecycle of a telecommunications infrastructure. KeyCom will support the planning of new installations, expansion projects, available capacity management, maintenance tasks and incident resolution.
The company believes that having technical data on a single platform can improve coordination between the different departments involved in operating the network. Instead of working with separate information, teams will be able to use the same environment to consult and manage data related to the infrastructure.
This matters more as a fiber network incorporates new elements and grows more complex. Information about assets, capacity and operations needs to stay coordinated so teams can use it across the different stages of planning and maintenance.
The agreement does not detail the number of kilometers of fiber or assets that will be brought into KeyCom, nor the specific geographic scope of each deployment phase. The information available is therefore limited to noting that the platform will centralize the inventory of Aire’s fiber network in Spain.
KeyCom as a tool for network growth
Aire places the adoption of KeyCom within its broader strategy of digitalizing and modernizing network operations, following other recent moves such as Aire Cloud’s launch of a second region in Madrid to strengthen its platform’s resilience. The company considers that the platform brings flexibility and the capacity to keep up with the expansion of its fiber infrastructure.
For Keypro, the agreement means adding Aire as a user of its specialized infrastructure management platform for telecommunications. The company presents KeyCom as a solution aimed at operators that need to manage complex networks and their evolution from a centralized environment.
The collaboration also sets up an ongoing relationship between the two companies. The stated goal is to keep adjusting the management of Aire’s fiber network as its coverage and capacity in Spain increase.
Beyond the specific tool, the agreement reflects a common need in telecommunications networks: keeping technical data aligned with the physical infrastructure it represents. As a network grows, information about its elements also has to stay current so it can be used for planning, operations, maintenance and troubleshooting.
In Aire’s case, KeyCom will be the environment chosen to bring that information together and make it available to the teams involved in managing the network. The company has not disclosed quantitative figures on the savings, incident resolution times or productivity gains it expects from the rollout.
For now, the main change announced is organizational and technological: Aire will move to a central GIS platform to manage the inventory and processes tied to its fiber infrastructure in Spain. How this evolves afterward will depend on the deployment of the solution and the growth of the network itself.
Frequently asked questions
