Access ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï Wholesale Unconditioned Local Loop and Spectrum Sharing services with an External Interconnect Cable, without directly accessing  a ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï equipment in the exchange. 

Access to ºÚÁϳԹÏ's Duct Network

External Interconnect Cables (EIC) provide access to ºÚÁϳԹÏ’s duct network of ducts, tunnels, manholes and pits.


EIC duct access makes it possible for licensed carriersÌýto build their own facilities away from ºÚÁϳԹÏ’s exchangesÌýyet still access our Unconditioned Local LoopÌý(ULL) orÌýSpectrum Sharing ServiceÌý(SSS) products.


EIC access to ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï ducts is through the installation of a copper pair cable along an approved route between a remote customer DSLAM site to a nearby ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï Exchange Main Distribution Frame (MDF). This achieves connection to ºÚÁϳԹÏ’s ULL or SSS services.

Operation & Maintenance

Once you’ve acquired and installed the EIC, ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï will take over the operation and maintenance. In most circumstances you can then access the ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï underground duct network through a breakout at an approved location, such as a pitÌýor manhole. More detail on the policies and procedures that apply, as well as the relevant terms and conditions, is available via your account manager or service manager.

Physical access

Wholesale customers who require access to ºÚÁÏ³Ô¹Ï Exchanges, mobile sites and DUCT network, need to email:ÌýTWSiteAccess@team.telstra.comÌýfor up to date physical access information.
