Accomplishments
- Installing a 64 core FO cable from the Red Hill Exchange to Nasr City Central.
May 2011 - May 2011
Resolved a major problem on 2011, as my team was asked to prepare dark fiber for new tasks, but with
no ability. A coordination was settled with Etesalat company to retake an empty pipe for inserting a fiber
optic cable.
This procedure saved 90% budget of the full project to install a new FO route
- Installing a new Fiber Optic route from the RED Hill Exchange to new Major construction Projects at
ElMoushir Axis Jul 2011 - Aug 2011
Original plan distance was 4.5 km. Unfortunately an excavator working illegally broke an existing FO route,
and was arrested to fix the damage, but through a shortcut route (500 mt only) to amend both the old and
new routes.
The procedures taken led to decrease the budget of this project 85%
