EC tackles fibre roll-out costs
2013-03-26 12:27:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The European Commission has proposed new rules aimed at cutting the cost of rolling out new broadband networks. The rules would involve harmonizing the procedures for civil works across the EU. In order to improve access to physical infrastructure, network operators would have the right to access, via a single information point, a set of minimum information concerning the existing infrastructure. Network operators would also be required to make available on request minimum information concerning their ongoing or planned civil works related to physical infrastructure, to facilitate other operators accessing the same sites. The EU also wants a single information point for applying electronically for permits for civil engineering works. The local authorities would be required to grant or refuse permits within six months of receiving a request, unless other deadlines apply under national or EU law. Finally, the new rules would require all newly-constructed buildings and buildings undergoing major renovation to be fitted with in-building broadband infrastructure, up to the network termination points. Every internet provider would then have the right to terminate its network at a concentration point inside or outside a building and access the in-building physical infrastructure on reasonable terms. The new rules still require approval by the European Parliament and Council. The national telecom regulators, or other local authorities depending on the member state, would have authority for implementing the rules.

Australian NBN roll-out progress slower than expected
2013-03-21 11:52:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) NBN Co, the company managing the roll-out of Australia's next-generation broadband network, said the project will miss its target for premises covered by June. The company said it was seeing about a three-month delay in fibre construction. As a result, only around 190,000 to 220,000 premises will be covered by June, and the original target of 341,000 premises passed by fibre should be reached about three months later. The NBN said the problem was not enough construction workers on the ground. To make up for the delay, the NBN Co is assuming direct management of the Northern Territory roll-out to ensure delivery, allowing contractor Syntheo to focus on the WA and SA areas. In addition, NBN Co and its construction partners will train and employ additional specialist workers (fibre splicers) to help recover lost time in the roll-out, and NBN Co's fibre construction contractors will increase their investment in equipment and manpower as well as technology to accelerate on-the-ground design and planning. The company said other major deliverables for the fibre network are on track, with no problems in acquiring equipment, implementing IT systems, rolling out the transit network or launching services. NBN Co underlined that the issue was short term and the NBN would meet its original Corporate Plan in terms of cost and delivery by 2021.
