How long does it take to build an iiNet DSLAM?
It varies; it can take as little as a few months to as long as a year. To build in an exchange we have to first ensure that the exchange room and associated services (power, aircon, etc) are in place. If they aren’t, we have to arrange for them to be built, in extreme circumstances we have to construct a separate building. We also have to make sure there’s space available for our equipment, have it installed and a migration scheduled and completed. It can be a straightforward process at times, but it just depends on the unique situation of every exchange.
