Felix Friedlander

Dear NBN Co Limited,

I would like to request a copy of an electronic document (spreadsheet, database extract, or similar) showing the location and distribution area (a string of the form [four letters]:[number]) of all existing FTTN cabinets.

I note that an equivalent request has already been considered in the past (see https://www.righttoknow.org.au/request/l...), but the requestor was unable or unwilling to pay the associated processing fee.

Please let me know if there are trivial changes that could be made to this request to decrease the assiciated processing time, and therefore fee.

Yours faithfully,

Felix Friedlander

Dear Mr Singh,

When I refer to a "distribution area", it is my understanding that the area served by each NBN FTTN node has an identifying code, as I attempted to describe in my initial request. For example, the area served by one node near Scullin, ACT, may be identified by "SCLN:18", or an area near Civic, ACT, may be identified by "CVIC:60".

If NBN Co is unable to release these codes (though it is my understanding that they are effectively public knowledge - see, for example, http://nbnmtm.australiaeast.cloudapp.azu... ) I would still desire a copy of the information requested without the aforementioned codes.

I am requesting the list of nodes as at June 22, when I made the request, or at any time in the preceding 6 months or following month if that information may be more readily retrieved.

Yours sincerely,

Felix Friedlander
