R&M the global Swiss developer and provider of cabling systems for high-quality network infrastructures, has successfully started the delivery and implementation of a cutting-edge network cabling infrastructure for İstanbul New Airport.
İstanbul New Airport will be constructed over an area 76.5 million square meters to the north of Istanbul which will be completed in four phases. The first phase will be finalized in 2018 with the opening of two runways and a terminal with 90 million passenger capacity.
Once complete, the new airport will host flying to more than 350 destinations with an annual passenger capacity up to 200 million. On completion of all four phases, İstanbul New Airport will have six active runways, 250 aircraft and parking facilities for 18,000 cars. With the increased utilization and dependence on IT systems in modern air travel, a high-performance cabling network is the critical platform for airport's entire internal and external telecommunications plus other operational applications and services. Michel Riva, CEO of R&M, states that İstanbul New Airport is their biggest project in Turkey and one of the largest globally.
