K2D, an acronym of Knowledge and Data from the Deep to Space, is the name of the research project, worth 1.7M€, which dstelecom, in partnership with entities from the National Scientific and Technological System and MIT, propose to develop over the next three years, under the MIT Portugal Program, corresponding to the challenge of guaranteeing the sustainable evolution of the earth, through the monotoring of terrestrial systems, anticipating their critical failures. K2D addresses this challenge “proposing the development of a global scale and totally disruptive monitoring system for the oceans, from the depths to the surface, through sensing and satellite which allow a holistic knowledge of the earth`s global system” advances dstelecom. The challenges under water and in particular at extremelly depths, are enourmous and the environmental exposure excessively hostile to conventional sensing approaches, which makes them extrmely expensive and makes any attempt to extend the monitoring approaches currently available to the atmosphere to the oceans impossible. For this reason, “K2D proposes to take advantage of the existing widespread infrastructure of submarine communications and energy transport cables to produce a network for continuous and real-time detection of vital signs of the land and, in particular, of the […]
Dstelecom has just reinforced the optical fiber cover in the county of Cuba, in Beja district, ensuring that 95% of the houses have now acess to the broadband service. With this reinforcement all parishes in the county have at their disposal more speed, greater bandwith, […]
dstelecom has reinforced its fiber-optic network in the municipality of Paredes de Coura, in the district of Viana do Castelo, ensuring coverage of 98% of the municipality, totaling approximately 6,400 homes.
At present, around 6,800 homes in Montemor-o-Novo have the opportunity to benefit from dstelecom’s fiber-optic network. By the end of November, the company expects this number to reach 7,500 homes.
