About highway
Hello!
Over the past six months, you may have seen at once a whole bunch of our posts about how all sorts of interesting things are mounted somewhere far to the east and north.
Yellow - own lines or exchange. Red - satellite, blue - rent, orange - IRU (Indefeasible right of use). Continuous line - existing, long dotted line - construction or test operation, short dotted line - planned for construction. We have already replaced one of the lines planned on the map with IRU.

Laying of PTA (protective polyethylene pipe) in the ground. Then an optical cable is blown into this tube.
I just want to tell you that we have done a lot of work there on the highway, which is why at last the compacted optics reached or reached in 2015 the furthest points.
The story is this: at the dawn of network development, we contacted these regions via satellite (in fact, even now a fairly large number of points work through orbital jumps). The satellite is not the fastest channel and the resource is rather limited. Therefore, with the development of 3G networks, new trunk lines were required. If the central part of Russia was covered by optics rather quickly, then it was here that the large traffic became commercially justified only in the last 5-6 years. And we just came with our rings to the region of the Far East.
The usual picture of the construction, the PTA on the reel on the orange car. The machine is called a "plow."
Inside, we began to build new lines, exchange our colleagues' lines, buy existing branches, enter into long-term lease agreements with other backbone providers. For example, in the region there are a lot of good lines of Rostelecom (here are the skinshots from their site):
When Rostelecom builds the line, as a rule, the entire big three operators follow the project with interest (lease negotiations are often under way).
From Krasnoyarsk to Irkutsk, we have a DWDM (dense wave compression, 88 channels per branch) - more than 100 Gbit / s per wavelength. The construction of the network continues from Irkutsk, we plan to finish it up to Khabarovsk this year. Technically, the line is ready to Chita, now is commissioning. In April, we plan to launch.
Once again, the map so as not to flip through
Further from Chita to Khabarovsk - under construction, we plan to finish in November-December of this year (if there are no surprises). Khabarovsk-Vladivostok - one line exists. We are planning the second backup line by summer: we are building our own, because now the backup channel is leased.
Now look at the section from Krasnoyarsk to Kansk, conditionally designated by two arcs. Physically, the two lines there are a few hundred kilometers of the highway (two physically separated routes).
Nearby you can see one more part of the ring on Bratsk, it is being built now, the delivery is planned in the summer. There are some of the most difficult soils in the region, so it was very difficult to provide a normal infrastructure for construction. In the past, similar construction, for example, in difficult ground near Vorkuta in the Urals, we have a bulldozer somehow frozen to the very cabin. Walked thinner, failed in the fall. While we were driving for something in order to “pull” it - a little bit more trap and finally got stuck. Then they froze, and he also froze for complete happiness. Until spring, he would have become a beautiful local secret monument, so they began to heat the earth around the fires, then cut out a whole layer of soil to get it. Local people laughed for a long time and habitually, their “pull out of the slurry” fun is traditional.
A group of comrades crawling across the field:
"Caravan" on flat ground
Machines cut the ground at a depth of half a meter at a minimum, then a trench is made, then a PZT or cable and warning tape are put into this trench, then everything is buried:
Horizontal drilling rig:
Cork at the end of the PTA to prevent dirt and water from getting inside:
Checking the tightness of the docking seam of the PZT:
But this happens when traffic jams do not have time to drive. In Russia, we solved the problem with a tape, and in Europe we would delay work until the arrival of traffic jams and reinforcements:
End of PTA (in the good sense of the word):
Pillar:
Now there will be a clutch, wait:
Cassette inside the coupling:
Mounted coupling:
Protective cover, in which the optical coupling lies:
HDD machine on the source:
She is in action:
Drilling head of a 400 ton HDB machine:
Preparing for the tightening of the PTA in the HDD-passage:
This set of tubes will go to the HDD transition:
And we went to rest:
We get the bulldozer from a push. IT romance:
"Shot" clip
Some beautiful and radiant people in their egoism creep the road without such precaution:
Gently and gently:
This mechanic is the main hero of the highways:
Amazingly clean HDD machine:
Waterproofing of the cable connection well:
But the forest fire:
Heavy soil, bulldozer helps cable laying machine:
The entrance to the city, tighten the cable into the telephone sewer:
Again HDD:
Radio marker in CAT. Auburn Kruglyash is a beacon in an optical telecommunications container:
Fire closer:
On the map of highways do not see this.
