A Monumental Task
gbi was tasked with designing and building the necessary infrastructure to provide Île Notre-Dame with a fully independent outdoor private network, the first step toward making it a “smart” site.
As pioneers and trailblazers in this field, we succeeded in installing significant wired capacity, with nearly 3.5 km of fibre-optic cable and 17 routers, each with 6 exit points.
Adapting to the Environment
The environment is central to our engineers’ concerns, which is why gbi ensures that environmental protection and sustainable development are integrated into our designs, work and achievements.
For this project on Île Notre-Dame, gbi adapted to nature. During the work, the vegetation was left untouched and all the peat that was removed in order to carry out the work was put back in its place. In addition, the installed surface equipment blends in seamlessly with the environment.
