Wholesale Extension Services/Backhaul Extension Services Equivalence of Input
Openreach is pleased to announce that the installed base of Wholesale Wholesale Extension Services (WES) and Backhaul Extension Services (BES) services was successfully migrated to EoI status over the Ready for Service weekend of the 29/30 September 2006. Work is now continuing at speed to migrate all other BT Services that use WES/BES products as a whole or component part of an end-to-end service.
The IBMC date for Ethernet Access Lines and IPVPN access tails is 31 March 2007 and LES services are to be completed by 30 September 2007. Currently BT is on target to achieve both these dates.
As with all major Undertakings, BT’s delivery of its Ready for Service dates for WES and BES will be subject to independent audit and review by the Equality of Access Board.
