Pipe Networks has announced that construction has commenced on two new fibre rollouts in Brisbane and Sydney. The Greater Springfield-Brisbane dark-fibre network will be a 79,000 cable metre circumference network ring for South East Queensland's Western Corridor. The greater Sydney area fibre optic network will significantly expand the company's existing network footprint and is due for completion in December 2005. It will extend from Mascot to Parramatta to Chatswood in a diverse ring design with over 40kms of cable. The Sydney network will consist of fibre optic cables with between 216 and 624 fibres made in Australia by Prysmian (formerly Pirelli Cables). PIPE says it believes its 624 fibre cable to be the largest core count loose tube fibre optic cable ever installed in Australia. The company says it has already secured key customers including carriers, government and corporate clients on the network. |
