Alabama Power Yashyizeho Umuyoboro Ukomeye wa Fiber Optique mu Kunoza Ubuziranenge no Gushyigikira Abaturage bo mu Cyaro

Ni saa moya za mu gitondo ku munsi w'itumba ukonje kandi w'izuba mu cyaro cyo mu Karere ka Koniko, kandi abakozi bamaze gukora cyane.
Imashini zikoresha imiyoboro y'amazi y'umuhondo mwinshi za Vermeer zarabagiranaga mu zuba rya mu gitondo, zica buhoro buhoro mu ibumba ritukura ku muyoboro w'amashanyarazi wa Alabama hanze ya Evergreen. Imiyoboro ine ya polyethylene ifite ubugari bwa santimetero 1.5, ikozwe muri polyethylene ikomeye y'ubururu, umukara, icyatsi kibisi, n'umuhondo, hamwe n'agace k'umuhondo kari gashyizwe hasi neza ubwo zagendaga mu butaka bworoshye. Imiyoboro itemba neza iva mu ngoma enye nini - imwe kuri buri bara. Buri kirongozi gishobora gutwara umuyoboro wa metero zigera ku 1.800 cyangwa hafi kilometero imwe.
Nyuma y’akanya gato, umucukuzi yakurikiye umuyoboro w’amazi, apfuka umuyoboro n’igitaka maze ajyana indobo inyuma n’imbere. Itsinda ry’inzobere, rigizwe n’abakora imirimo yihariye n’abayobozi b’amashanyarazi bo muri Alabama, ni bo bagenzura iki gikorwa, bagenzura ubuziranenge n’umutekano.
Nyuma y'iminota mike, irindi tsinda ryakurikiyeho riri mu ikamyo ifite ibikoresho byihariye. Umwe mu bakozi yanyuze mu mwobo wuzuye inyuma, akwirakwiza imbuto z'ibyatsi byo muri ako gace yitonze. Yakurikiwe n'ikamyo ifite icyuma gitera amazi cyateraga ubwatsi ku mbuto. Ubwatsi bufata imbuto mu mwanya wazo kugeza zimeze, bugasubiza inzira ku buryo zari zimeze mbere y'uko zubakwa.
Mu birometero bigera kuri 16 ugana iburengerazuba, mu nkengero z'ikigo cy'ubuhinzi, hari abandi bakozi bakora munsi y'umuyoboro w'amashanyarazi, ariko bafite akazi gatandukanye rwose. Aha hantu umuyoboro wagombaga kunyura mu kidendezi cy'ubuhinzi gifite ubuso bwa hegitari 30 gifite ubujyakuzimu bwa metero 12. Iki kigero kiri hagati ya metero 12 n'igice ugereranyije n'umuyoboro wacukuwe kandi wuzuye hafi ya Evergreen.
Muri iki gihe, itsinda ryashyizeho icyuma gifata icyerekezo gisa n'ikintu cyavuye muri filime ya steampunk. Iki gikoresho gifite agasanduku kariho "agasanduku" k'icyuma gakomeye gafata igice cy'umuyoboro w'imashini. Imashini ikanda inkoni zizunguruka mu butaka buri kimwe, igakora umuyoboro wa metero 1.200 aho umuyoboro uzanyura. Iyo umuyoboro umaze gucukurwa, inkoni irakurwaho hanyuma umuyoboro ukururwa mu kidendezi kugira ngo ubashe guhuzwa n'imiyoboro y'amashanyarazi iri munsi y'insinga z'amashanyarazi inyuma y'umuyoboro uri ku mpande.
Ku birometero bitanu ugana iburengerazuba, ku nkengero z'umurima w'ibigori, itsinda rya gatatu ryakoresheje isuka yihariye ifatanye inyuma y'icyuma gitwara amashanyarazi kugira ngo bashyireho imiyoboro y'inyongera ku murongo umwe w'amashanyarazi. Aha ni inzira yihuse, ifite ubutaka bworoshye, buhingwa kandi buringaniye bituma byoroha kugera imbere. Isuka yihuta, ifungura umuyoboro muto ishyiraho umuyoboro, maze abakozi buzuza vuba ibikoresho biremereye.
Iki ni kimwe mu bigize umushinga ukomeye wa Alabama Power wo gushyira ikoranabuhanga rya fiber optique munsi y’ubutaka ku miyoboro y’amashanyarazi y’ikigo – umushinga usezeranya inyungu nyinshi atari ku bakiriya b’ikigo cy’amashanyarazi gusa, ahubwo no ku baturage bashyiramo iyo fiber.
“Ni inkingi y'itumanaho kuri buri wese,” ibi byavuzwe na David Skoglund, uyobora umushinga wo mu majyepfo ya Alabama urimo gushyira insinga mu burengerazuba bwa Evergreen unyuze i Monroeville ugana i Jackson. Aho ngaho, umushinga ugana mu majyepfo kandi amaherezo uzahuzwa n'uruganda rwa Alabama Power rwa Barry ruri muri Mobile County. Gahunda itangira muri Nzeri 2021, ikaba ikora ibirometero bigera kuri 120.
Iyo imiyoboro imaze gushyirwaho kandi ishyinguwe neza, abakozi bakoresha insinga nyayo ya fiber optique banyuze muri imwe muri iyo miyoboro ine. Mu buryo bw'ikoranabuhanga, insinga "ihuhwa" inyuze mu muyoboro hakoreshejwe umwuka ufunze hamwe na parachute nto ifatanye imbere y'umurongo. Mu gihe ikirere cyiza, abakozi bashobora gushyiramo insinga ya kilometero 8.
Imiyoboro itatu isigaye izakomeza kuba ubuntu kugeza ubu, ariko insinga zishobora kongerwamo vuba niba hakenewe ubushobozi bw'inyongera bwa fibre. Gushyiramo imiyoboro ubu ni bwo buryo bwiza kandi buhendutse bwo kwitegura ejo hazaza igihe uzaba ukeneye guhanahana amakuru menshi vuba.
Abayobozi b’ibihugu barimo kwibanda cyane ku kwagura umurongo ngenderwaho mu ntara yose, cyane cyane mu byaro. Guverineri Kay Ivey yatumije inama idasanzwe y’inteko ishinga amategeko ya Alabama muri iki cyumweru aho abashingamategeko biteganijwe ko bazakoresha igice cy’amafaranga y’icyorezo cya leta mu kwagura umurongo ngenderwaho.
Umuyoboro wa fiber optique wa Alabama Power uzagirira akamaro ikigo n'abaturage binyuze muri Alabama NewsCenter kuri Vimeo.
Kwaguka no gusimbuza umuyoboro wa fiber optique wa Alabama Power byatangiye mu myaka ya 1980 kandi byongera ubwizigirwa n'ubudahangarwa bw'umuyoboro mu buryo bwinshi. Iri koranabuhanga rizana ubushobozi bwo gutumanaho bugezweho kuri uwo muyoboro, rituma sitasiyo nto zishobora kuvugana hagati yazo. Iyi mikorere yemerera amasosiyete gushyiraho gahunda zigezweho zo kurinda zigabanya umubare w'abakiriya bagizweho ingaruka no kubura kw'umuyoboro n'igihe cyo kubura kw'umuyoboro. Izi nsinga zimwe zitanga inkingi y'itumanaho yizewe kandi yizewe ku bigo by'amashanyarazi bya Alabama nk'ibiro, ibigo bigenzura n'inganda z'amashanyarazi hirya no hino mu gace ka serivisi.
Ubushobozi bwa fibre ifite umuvuduko munini butuma umutekano w’ahantu hatandukanye hakoreshejwe ikoranabuhanga nka videwo ifite ubusobanuro buhanitse. Binatuma amasosiyete yongera gahunda zo kubungabunga ibikoresho bya sitasiyo hashingiwe ku miterere yabyo—ikindi cyiza ni ukwizerwa no gukomera kwa sisitemu.
Binyuze mu bufatanye, ibi bikorwa remezo bya fibre bivuguruye bishobora kuba inkingi ikomeye y'itumanaho ku baturage, bigatanga umuyoboro wa fibre ukenewe ku zindi serivisi, nko gukoresha interineti yihuta, mu turere twa leta aho fibre idahari.
Mu baturage benshi, Alabama Power irimo gukorana n'abatanga serivisi zo mu gace n'amakoperative y'amashanyarazi yo mu cyaro kugira ngo ifashe mu gushyira mu bikorwa serivisi za interineti yihuta cyane na interineti, ingenzi mu iterambere ry'ubucuruzi n'ubukungu, uburezi, umutekano n'ubuzima rusange, ndetse n'ubuzima bwiza bw'amashanyarazi.
“Twishimiye amahirwe iyi miyoboro ya fibre ishobora guha abatuye icyaro ndetse n’abatuye mu mijyi benshi,” ibi byavuzwe na George Stegal, Umuyobozi w’Itsinda rya Alabama Power Connectivity.
Mu by’ukuri, nk’isaha imwe uvuye ku muhanda wa Interstate 65, mu mujyi wa Montgomery, hari itsinda ririmo gushyiramo fibre nk’igice cy’umuyoboro w’amashanyarazi uri kubakwa hirya no hino mu murwa mukuru. Kimwe n’abaturage benshi bo mu cyaro, fibre optique izaha ibikorwa bya Alabama Power ibikorwa remezo by’itumanaho ryihuse n’isesengura ry’amakuru, ndetse n’uburyo bwo guhuza internet mu buryo bwihuse mu karere.
Mu gace k'imijyi nka Montgomery, gushyiraho fibre optique bizana n'izindi mbogamizi. Urugero, fibre ahantu hamwe na hamwe igomba kunyuzwa mu mihanda mito kandi inyuramo abantu benshi. Hari imihanda myinshi na gari ya moshi bigomba kwambuka. Byongeye kandi, hagomba kwitonderwa cyane iyo hashyirwa hafi y'ibindi bikorwa remezo byo munsi y'ubutaka, kuva ku miyoboro y'amazi mabi, amazi na gazi kugeza ku miyoboro y'amashanyarazi isanzwe iri munsi y'ubutaka, imiyoboro ya terefone n'insinga. Ahandi hantu, ubutaka butera izindi mbogamizi: mu bice by'iburengerazuba n'uburasirazuba bwa Alabama, urugero, imigezi miremire n'imisozi miremire bivuze ko hari imiyoboro icukuwe ifite ubujyakuzimu bwa metero 30.
Ariko, ibikorwa byo gushyiramo amakuru hirya no hino muri leta biri kugenda bitera imbere, bituma isezerano rya Alabama ry’umuyoboro w’itumanaho wihuta kandi uhamye riba impamo.
“Nishimiye kuba umwe mu bagize uyu mushinga no gufasha mu gutanga serivisi zo guhuza abaturage ku buryo bwihuse,” Skoglund yavuze ubwo yarebaga umuyoboro unyura mu mirima y’ibigori irimo ubusa mu burengerazuba bwa Evergreen. Akazi kari gukorwa hano kagenewe kutabangamira isarura ry’umuhindo cyangwa iterwa ry’impeshyi.
“Ibi ni ingenzi kuri iyi mijyi mito n’abaturage batuye hano,” Skoglund yongeyeho ati “Ibi ni ingenzi ku gihugu. Nishimiye kugira uruhare ruto mu kubigeraho.”
