Infrastructure Details

The Limerick MAN plus Northern Extension was completed in 2005 consisting of 65kms of primarily 4-way ducting. One duct contains 4 sub-ducts. One of theses sub-ducts contains a 48-pair optical fibre cable. The network also consists of approximately 6km of drop connections consisting of 2-way ducting, sub-ducting and 12-pair optical fibre cable.

The Tait Business Centre in Dominic St., Limerick is the Point of Presence (PoP) or Co-Location facility for the new network.

The network has been designed to link up with existing telecommunications infrastructure in the region which includes fibre infrastructure, Points of Presence and mobile operator base stations.
