What has been constructed by Project ATLAS at the six business parks?
Each business park has dual rings of dark, fibre-optic cable running around it, with cable legs running out to each building on the park. There is also a Co-Location Building (CLB) on each park, which is used for telecommunications inter-connect and data storage equipment. There are entry points (Neutral Access Points) where any private sector telecoms company can connect up its own external network to the Atlas on-park network, thereby gaining access to buildings and potential customers on the park. The new infrastructures in place provide fibre access for every building on the business parks, irrespective of size of business or current need. The infrastructures are also available for use by any service provider who wishes to use them to deliver advanced broadband services to customers on the six parks concerned.
