Telecom District at the Mexico Digital Summit 2026: The Network That Connects Distributed Infrastructure

Mexico City, October 27, 2026. Telecom District participated as a sponsor at the Mexico Digital Summit 2026, held on October 6 and 7 at Alboa in Mexico City. Over the course of the two-day event, the company showcased Kontrol Edge, its enterprise connectivity platform, in a demonstration on the event’s terrace, and its CEO, Javier Bamio, participated in the panel discussion on data centers.

During the panel discussion, Bamio explained that traffic between two users in Mexico often travels to the United States and back, and that there is room for improvement in terms of quality of service and sovereignty. A few days later, he elaborated on this idea in an interview with DPL News: “The demand for AI is not the same as what we’re used to. We’re seeing very different patterns and levels of usage.”

The network that connects the distributed infrastructure

Bamio explained that AI agents query and process large volumes of information horizontally, across many systems simultaneously, to respond to a single request. Added to this are distributed inference across multiple locations and data centers that are exchanging ever-increasing amounts of information. Cisco projects that by 2035, AI inference will account for about 25% of network traffic.

Within each data center, that task is handled by its own network. Telecom District’s role is to connect the sites to each other, to the clouds, and to the carriers. To do so, it relies on a greenfield SRv6 backbone—in production since March 2025—with a programmable, automatable architecture designed to connect distributed infrastructure. This architecture enables:

• data center interconnect (DCI) and cloud connectivity;
• routes and policies that can be configured according to the needs of each service;
• isolation between services;
• observability and operational automation.

In September, Cisco showcased that backbone as a success story at Cisco Connect LatAm 2026: Cisco Presents Telecom District as a Success Story at Cisco Connect LatAm 2026.

Modernize what already exists

The Telecom District model builds on the fiber infrastructure that already exists in the country and modernizes it with new transport layers. “Let’s take what’s already there and use what we already have,” Bamio summarized in DPL News. In his view, that infrastructure requires 400G and 800G optical capabilities per port, telemetry to monitor each link, route diversity, and greater interconnection between data centers.

Kontrol Edge operates on that network; it is the platform through which Telecom District customers view and manage their services in real time: each service, the fiber over which it travels, its status, and SLA compliance. “Our platform promotes a high degree of transparency,” Bamio noted.
