BTs Extended Reach DSL Trial Update
Posted: 23rd Jun, 2003 By: Anne
Service providers released more information about the Trials that are due to start on 9th July. These are the trails to test the extended reach from 55dB to 60dB and measure the line loss. After the success of the 100 BT staff tests these 1000 could be the start of the extended reach service.
The bad news for some is that the pilot is not available to people converting from ISDN2 or BT Highway. For everyone else two types of order exist:
For those who applied for ADSL and failed previously
This is considered to be an application from a known RED line, and service providers must submit orders for the pilot via the manual system. The order is then considered for the pilot and if accepted the provider is notified and the order will go ahead as normal. Providers cannot submit orders for the trial until after 9th July, but will be able to hold lists themselves and submit these after July 9th.
New orders, i.e. those who have not ordered ADSL before.
These orders are submitted as normal, via the ECO and XML systems that BT Wholesale uses. On receipt of an order, the new planning rules are applied to ensure a higher proportion of AMBER lines are progressed to GREEN and provided as orders. If any known RED orders are submitted via this method, they will be rejected as normal. These new rules will be in effect after 9th July.
