Annexure 1: DTCS Service Description

 

The domestic transmission capacity service is a service for the carriage of certain communications from one transmission point to another transmission point via symmetric network interfaces on a permanent uncontended basis by means of guided and/or unguided electromagnetic energy, including services provided on or over:

 

 

 except communications between:

(a)               one customer transmission point directly to another customer transmission point

(b)               one access seeker network location directly to another access seeker network location

(c)               in the case of inter-capital routes, a transmission point located at an exchange in a deregulated ESA within one capital city boundary to a transmission point located at an exchange in a deregulated ESA within another capital city boundary

 

Note: Refer to Table 1 for the exchange serving areas (ESAs) which are deregulated in each capital city and Table 3 for the boundaries of each capital city.

(d)               in the case of regional routes, a transmission point located at an exchange in a deregulated regional ESA to a transmission point located at an exchange in a deregulated ESA in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or Adelaide

Note: Refer to Table 1 for the ESAs which are deregulated in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide. Refer to Table 2 for the list of deregulated regional ESAs.

or

(e)               in the case of metropolitan routes, transmission points located at an exchange between:

(1)        any of the deregulated metropolitan ESAs in Sydney

Annexure 2 - DTCS service description

The domestic transmission capacity service (DTCS) is a service for the carriage of certain communications from one transmission point to another transmission point via symmetric network interfaces on a permanent uncontended basis by means of guided and/or unguided electromagnetic energy.

The DTCS may be provided via an online ordering tool and with enhanced service monitoring where these services are available.

The DTCS is supplied at low, mid-range and high capacities on or over:

except communications between:

(a)   one customer transmission point directly to another customer transmission point

(b)   one access seeker network location directly to another access seeker network location

(c)    in the case of inter-capital routes, a transmission point located at an exchange in a deregulated ESA within one capital city boundary to a transmission point located at an exchange in a deregulated ESA within another capital city boundary

Note: Refer to Table 1 for the exchange serving areas (ESAs) which are deregulated in each capital city and Table 3 for the boundaries of each capital city.

(d)   in the case of regional routes, a transmission point located at an exchange in a deregulated regional ESA to a transmission point located at an exchange in a deregulated ESA in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or Adelaide

Note: Refer to Table 1 for the ESAs which are deregulated in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide. Refer to Table 2 for the list of deregulated regional ESAs.

or

(e)   in the case of metropolitan routes, transmission points located at an exchange between:

(1)   any of the deregulated metropolitan ESAs in Sydney

(2)   any of the deregulated metropolitan ESAs in Brisbane

(3)   any of the deregulated metropolitan ESAs in Melbourne

(4)   any of the deregulated metropolitan ESAs in Perth, or

(5)   any of the deregulated metropolitan ESAs in Adelaide.

Note: Refer to Table 1 for the ESAs which are deregulated in each capital city.

The exceptions in paragraphs (c), (d) and (e) do not apply to any service that is comprised of an inter-capital, regional or metropolitan route that is bundled with or incorporates a tail-end route.

exchange means a telecommunications exchange and includes the land, buildings and facilities (within the meaning of section 7 of the Telecommunications Act 1997 (Cth)) that comprise or form part of the exchange

exchange serving area or ESA means the area served from a traditional local exchange building

high capacity is a transmission rate of 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps) and above

inter-capital route means a route from a transmission point within one capital city boundary to a transmission point within another capital city boundary in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Perth or Sydney. Capital city boundaries are listed in Table 3

low capacity is a transmission rate of and between 2 Megabits per second (Mbps) and 10Mbps

mid-range capacity is a transmission rate between, but not including, 10Mbps and 1Gbps

metropolitan route means a route where both the transmission points for the beginning and end of the route are within the same capital city boundary. Capital city boundaries are listed in Table 3

Mobile base station means a mobile phone radiocommunications transmitter and its associated infrastructure including any antennas, housings and other equipment

network interfaces include, but are not limited to, Ethernet, Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) network interfaces used to provide a transmission rate of 2.048Mbps or above which an access provider provides to itself or others

ongoing technical support means support by an expert technical team

a point of interconnection is the nearest designated physical point of interconnection in Australia between a network operated by a transmission service provider and another network operated by an access seeker (this includes a third carrier or carriage service provider where the third party supplies a transmission service directly to the access seeker)

regional route means a route where either one or both of the transmission points for the beginning and end of the route are outside a capital city boundary. Capital city boundaries are listed in Table 3

service monitoring means the monitoring of faults by an access provider

tail-end route means a route where both the transmission points for the beginning and end of the route are within the same ESA

a transmission point is any of the following:

a)      a point of interconnection

b)      a customer transmission point

c)      an access seeker network location
