San Luis 3.0 is the name of the state policy that defines actions to maximize San Luis’ digitalization and prepares it for the effects of the fourth industrial revolution.
The readily available, easily accessible technological infrastructure with improved bandwidth is the basis for inclusion and education in San Luis.
Within this framework, the Information Highway is the digital infrastructure that the Government of San Luis has made available to its citizens for two decades, free of charge Internet access and with the highest quality standards, in order to ensure that the network is a key driver for progress and ensuring fair and inclusive growth.
The systems and applications for Health, Safety and Education implemented on this infrastructure are the foundations for the transformation of government systems and their relationship with people.
The innovative use of the network impacts agricultural and livestock production, industry, commerce and the general population.
Therefore, technological development of this infrastructure is constantly updating, which allows it to adapt to the latest technological standards.
This result in a noticeable improvement in bandwidth of users, from having 32 Mbps links 20 years ago to extensive fiber optic lines featuring cutting-edge technology that today allow to multiply bandwidths and achieve speeds above 200,000 Mbps in trunk links. Furthermore, the inclusion of free WI-FI hotspots increases bandwidth up to the limits of current technology.
