Restauración de equipos es la estrategia rentable y ecológica para una industria de telecomunicaciones creciente

Refurbishment: The Profitable and Eco-Friendly Strategy Helping Telecommunication Providers in Latin America Meet Growing Demand

Most episodes of the Broadband Linkup podcast are in English, our latest podcast in Spanish was been very well received by our Latin American audience, so we are back by popular demand with another podcast in Spanish.

We continue our journey exploring the latest trends in telecommunications, examining a growing industry that is adapting to changing consumer demands and market dynamics in Latin America — the refurbishment of Customer Premises Equipment (CPE), especially telecommunication terminals for cable, internet or IP telephony service providers.

To provide insight, we were joined by returning guest David Mosquera, Sales Director for Promptlink Latin America, and Claudio Zanino, Engineering and Project Manager of the Seac Group, a video, audio and data terminal restoration company.

We live in an increasingly interconnected world, where demand for high-quality telecommunications services is no longer urban or rural, but global. This is why the telecommunications industry in Latin America is facing a series of crucial challenges that must be turned into opportunities to successfully meet the growing demand for these services in the region, especially faster internet connections at reasonable prices.

It is here that the automation of the restoration process of terminals for internet, cable or IP telephony services can become an excellent strategy to meet this demand while improving quality and client satisfaction standards and stabilizing operational costs.

"We have seen a growing demand for restoration services in the Latin American and U.S. markets, especially in the last six years," said Mosquera, who predicts a rising demand for these practices in the future.

More importantly, Mosquera and Zanino argue that refurbishment of terminals has helped telecommunications companies adapt to eco-friendly practices, given that it contributes to an increase in equipment recycling. This renders the manufacture, transportation and purchase of new electronic devices unnecessary, which eliminates a process that can take from six to eight months and can significantly raise costs.

Listen to the podcast to learn more about the benefits of automation in equipment restoration and how they help telecommunication companies meet operational and environmental objectives.

Key takeaway points:

• Equipment restoration is crucial for Latin American telecommunications operators.
• Restoring a terminal instead of investing in new equipment can save time and money.
• Automation has boosted the expansion of CPE refurbishment in Latin America.
