Mobinil, Egypt's leading mobile operator, awarded this large-scale project to R&M, and it was lead by R&M's partner in Egypt, ElSalam for Engineering Equipment 'QUIP'. ElSalam implemented R&M's leading structured cabling solutions at the Nile City Tower where Mobinil new offices and data centre are head-quartered.

The project started in 2004, when Mobinil - the Egyptian Company for Mobile Services - decided to relocate some of their offices from the Cairo World Trade Centre to the Nile City Towers.

Mobinil required that the company they work with boast advanced technical expertise and provide the highest cabling specifications. They wanted all Copper and fiber cables to have LSFR0H jacket, and the Copper cables had to be Cat. 6 SFTP. R&M cables were specifically produced for this project and were delivered on schedule.

The project included 3500 Cat. 6 shielded outlets using the 45x45 mounting plates to fit with the required architect's requirements. Global panels were specified for its easy maintenance. Voice panels were also included to integrate voice network with the data network.

'R&M were selected for their domain expertise and advanced cabling product portfolio, which include Level-3 security products that comply with our required high specifications,' said Kamal Kamel , Manager Data Network & Security, Mobinil.

'In line with Mobinil's commitment to constantly provide the highest level of service to its customers, we always work with the most reliable and experienced partners in their respective fields, which is why we were proud to work with R&M,' stated Iskander Shalaby, President and CEO of Mobinil.

'We are delighted to have been chosen by Mobinil as the structured cabling supplier for such an important project. We are confident that with R&M Enterprise Cabling in place at Mobinil offices and data centre, they will enjoy the rewards of scalable, reliable and proven network infrastructure for all their communication needs now and into the future.'

Laurent Amestoy, Regional General Manager, R&M Middle East & Africa.

Building on this success, in 2005, R&M and QUIP were selected for the second time to provide copper and fiber backbone for Mobinil's new data center in the Nile City. R&M 64 Cat. 6 Global panels and over 100 fiber panels were used at Mobinil's data center along with Level-3 security products. Low-Smoke Flame-Retardant requirements were specified for all cables. Voice panels were also used to support voice integration.
