Brief: To repair broken legacy fibre optic connectors after carriages have been parted

What has been done:
• Onsite assessment of internal and external fibre optics in each of the carriages;
• Reverse engineered and manufactured all obsolescent fibre optic connector parts;
• Designed all repair procedures to onsite regulations, including termination kit.

Requests for emergency repair were turned around the following morning denoting a level of service and response almost impossible to improve.
