I have performed my summer field practice at Awash Bank from July
17_ August 15,2023 G.C Academic year. During this training, I have
learned and practiced numerous knowledge and skills about wired
network configuration and installation in Awash Bank Internship is a
program that allows students to get practical knowledge from the
working environment as well as to experience the ability to work with
people. It enables us to put into the skill, technique, and knowledge that
are important for success in our future work. As the main purpose of this
internship is, to create a linkage between the theory and practical issue I
have gained different practical knowledge in networking. Thus, this
document contains all the basic information about my work experience,
basic information about the organization I stayed, how I get oriented on
my work, my duties and responsibilities, recommendation for the
internship and other topics.
This report focuses for the most part on the major project and the smaller
project are more briefly described. The conclusion section provide a
summar of key conclusion derived from my internship experience.

2.1 BACK GROUND OF ORGANIZATION
8|Page
Awash Bank, Ethiopia’s pioneering private bank, was established on
November 10, 1994 after the downfall of the socialist regime. The Bank
was established by 486 founding shareholders with a paid-up capital of
Birr 24.2 million and started banking operations on Feb. 13, 1995. Since
embarking operation, the Bank has registered remarkable growth.
Notwithstanding global and domestic challenges, Awash Bank has
exhibited a superior operational and financial performances among
private banks operating in Ethiopia. Awash Bank is currently working
towards strengthening its capital base, technological capabilities, human
resources and customer base.
Our name derives from the Awash River, which is extensively used in
Ethiopia for small to large-scale irrigation schemes, hydroelectricity
generation and for industrial activities. By that token, the tagline
“nurturing like the river” implies Awash Bank’s immense contribution to
the country’s socio-economic development. We also serve the population
by encouraging the habit of saving, the provision of credit facilities and
facilitating efficient and fast payment systems.
One of the core values of our bank is accessibility. We always strive to
improve our accessibility by means of different service delivery
channels. Currently, we are the most accessible private bank in the
country, with a large footprint of extensive branch networks. In addition
to branch networks, we provide our customers the convenience of 24/7
service through ATMs, point of sale terminals, internet, mobile and
agency banking.
Corporate social responsibility lies at the heart of Awash Bank’s
activities since its establishment. The Bank’s intent is to change the
socio-economic situation of the communities within which it operates by
ploughing back funds to improve education, health and the
environmental and social wellbeing of the disadvantaged strata. The
positive impact of our activities is clearly indicated in the number of
elementary schools built in collaboration with NGOs, the health
facilities improved and the trees planted in different parts of the country
and the like.
Our success is measured by realization of our organizational goals and
the objectives specified in our strategy. In this regard, we have crafted a
9|Page
10-year strategic roadmap with the theme ‘Transforming AIB: Vision
2025. It has ambitious financial and non-financial targets. Nevertheless,
our performance so far indicates that the Bank is on the verge of
attaining those targets much before 2025. Awash Bank has recorded
above average banking industry growth rates in most key financial
performance indicators in the last decade. Indeed, Awash Bank has
recorded the fastest growth rate among private banks operating in the
country. We owe this impressive achievement to the visionary leadership
of our Board of Directors, dedicated management team, committed staff
and loyal customers.

CHAPTER 5
5.1 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
As we know, customer number is increase from day to day. Due to this,
there are many problems in this district. This are:-
There is also lack of computer skilled man In the organization
There is lack of installation of network in all staff
Lack of network expansion

Tester: is an electronic material that checks cable arrangement.
We used this networking tool for:
To test whether a given Ethernet cable is working or not and
To test whether a given Ethernet node is working or not.
To identify the arrangement of the network media.

RJ-45: A registered jack (RJ) is a standardized network interface used
for network cabling, wiring and jack construction. The primary function
19 | P a g e
of registered jacks is to connect different data equipment and
telecommunication devices with services normally provided by
telephone exchanges or long-distance carriers We used commonly as a
connector.
All RJ-45 connector has eight pins, which means an RJ-45 cable
contains eight separate wires I n RJ-45 it is a standardized networking
interface“45" is refers to the number of the interface
standard.

Cutter near the handles that can be used to cut CAT6 cable.
CAT-6
21 | P a g e
Fig 5:trunk
Cat-6 cable: We used this cable for data translation between devices.
The three most common types of communication cables are twisted pair,
coaxial, fiber optic. Understanding the differences between the three will
shed light on how data travels through each cable, which ultimately
affects your connection and things like speed, latency, security, cost, etc.
and also the differences between UTP and STP is UTP is used to reduce
crosstalk or noise while STP is shielded twisted to reduce
electromagnetic interference. to here is a general breakdown of the three
different types of cable systems and what they are capable of:
Twisted pair cables
22 | P a g e
Fig 6:cat=6 cable
Twisted pair cables are quite literally a pair of insulated wires that
are twisted together to help reduce noise from outside sources. While
this does help some, these cables are still very susceptible to outside
noise. Twisted pair cables are the most cost-effective option of the three
but that also brings about lower bandwidth and high attenuation. There
are two types of twisted pair cables:

Fisher (expenditure pipe): We used this device to hold screws of
different size.

Patch panel: A patch panel in a local area network (LAN) is a
mounted hardware assembly that contains ports used to connect and
manage incoming and outgoing LAN cables. A patch panel uses patch
cords, a sort of jumper cable, to create each interconnection. Patch
panels are usually attached to network racks, either above or below
network switches. Patch panels can be based on the number of ports they
contain, with 48-port, 24-port and 12-port panels among the most
common. Patch panels are also designed for specific cable specifications
like cat 5e, cat 6, cat 6a and cat 7 cables.
there are two types cable arrangement .those are straight through cable
arrangement and cross over cable arrangement.

Cross over cable: We use this cable to connect the same type of
network devices where the pins order on one end follows the 568A
pinning order and the other end of the cable follows the 568B pinning
order. That means connecting two pieces of equipment that have the
same pin edge on both ports such as connecting.

Make sure the stripper is adjusted properly on a scrap piece of cable.
The Stripper should be adjusted to only cut the jacket to make removing
it easier and not nick the twisted pairs.
Straighten the pairs out completely and lay them over the top of the jack
with the order of the color pattern for wiring.
Keeping the pairs as twisted as possible press the wire into the correct
groove with your thumbs.
If you completely straighten the wires to run them through the jack you
will risk cross talk between the pairs.
Using a punch down tool, punch the wires down into the blades built
into the jack.
The blades in the jack are designed to work with solid cable, and may
not work with stranded cable.
Make sure the blade is facing the outside of the jack.

Step to crimp UTP cable
By making cat6 Ethernet cable, the advantage of this Ethernet cable is to
transfer the data easily. To make the cat6 Ethernet cable the following
steps are performed:-
Step 1: Strip the cable jacket about 1.5 inch down from the end.
30 | P a g e
Step 2: Spread the four pairs of twisted wire apart
31 | P a g e
Step 5: Carefully insert the wires all the way into the modular
connector, making sure that each wire passes through the appropriate
guides inside the connector.
32 | P a g e
Step 6: Push the connector inside the crimping tool and squeeze the
crimper all the way down.

CHAPTER FIVE
6. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
6.1 CONCLUSION
To generalize my field practice I understood the real world work
environment what it looks like what challenges can be appear at work.
There are a lot of materials I used and seen during summer field
practice for hardware network installation . Some of that are :-
switch ,cat6, wall outlet, cutter crimper, cable tester ,puncher, RJ45
and also to know how to use the material that used network installation
and which material was needed .
6.2 RECOMMENDATIONS
I would like to Recommend practical attachment is good way basic
acquired knowledge, however duration's of the practical one very
short in the internships. Because some course require practices that I
had learnt from 1st to 3rd year to cover the theory one into practical.
