The fault yesterday did not affect our Core network. All protection switching worked as expected. The outages experienced by customers were as follows: * the CATV/Cable modem network for Karori area only. * phone services for approx. 300 homes, as one of the two fibre cables cut was a cabinet feed on a spur. * some IP customers who are on a point to point service (e.g, a customer with a 1Gb feed, with 100Mb backup from another switch. They pay for this service to be as it is.) The slip earlier this year did not take out all services, it only took out CATV/cable modem services, plus a few point to point IP customers. Once again our core network performed as designed. All CATV/Cable modem services are currently supplied via point to point. -- Michael Newbery IP Architect TelstraClear Limited
