    I got a good laugh out of this thread, but if the eircom staff here decide that the matter is not for public discussion you shall be bashing your head off a brick wall while waiting for info that will never appear from them. The "interesting" remarks made about amber lines and artificial speed restrictions suggest that either frontline staff don't know what's going or have been told to keep their mouths shut!

    This kind of stuff just underlines why the local access infrastructure should have been kept in public hands!

    Front line staff in any of these companies rarely have access to any technical data other than through some kind of a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system which usually just provides them with very limited options.

    Other than where a number has been ported or moved around somehow, you can still figure out which exchange it's on based on the area code and the first few digits of a phone number

    Front line staff in BT will tell you your D and E sides ( the pair IDs) and your cabinet ...OH, and your exchange.

    They will tell you if that cabinet is due to get VDSL Gear.

    Everbody can get the entire exchange database and exchange codes for years in the UK. That information is here and uses data supplied by BT Wholesale and in Partnership with Ofcom

    In IRELAND they do not know

    a) Their own exchanges
    b) their own exchange codes
    c) WTF is a D side
    d) WTF is an E Side
    e) WTF is a cabinet.

    Astounding, then they tell me information in the public domain will be removed forthwith ...and then they find that removing it will break the whole site .....so they don't. :D

    scratch the first part, got confirmation that MOUNTNUGENT MNU 049 with many thanks, just the Monksland one and whetever is in the first and second posts in this thread.

    Strike Glen island exchange off the list lads. Found It.

    That is what a typical modern exchange looks like ( the larger middle box) . The DSL gear will be in an even taller separate box with vents on top. eircom left themselves plenty of expansion room there, fair play.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 25,234 ✭✭✭✭Sponge Bob


    Don't anybody trouble themselves over the Clashmore Co. Waterford exchange because we found it HERE


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,230 ✭✭✭Solair


    These are basically fibre-to-kerb installations, just bizarrely without DSL :D:D:D

    I'm sure you'll get lovely sound though on the voice lines hehe

    Voice-only FTTC - not many companies would do that!! :D

    Well, I suppose they're reverting to the P&T days when exchanges were probably classified under the Official Secrets Act on a need-to-know basis for absolutely no logical reason.

    Telecommunications access infrastructure information really should be in the public domain and that goes for eircom exchanges / cabinet nodes, UPC and other cable company systems and nodes and mobile networks mast locations.

    People have to make decisions e.g. where to buy/rent homes and setup businesses based on this kind of information.

    They all had P7T Plaques on them back in them days Solair :)

    As already stated in numerous earlier posts, this is technical / operational information for operators and as such we will not be posting these codes here. This ( internal operational) data is only provided by eircom Wholesale and only to Other Access Operators (OAOs). . If you fall into either of the categories mentioned you should already have this information.
    Any customer who wishes information on their exchange, whether this be speed capacity, upgrade information NGN enablement have only to ask.
    If you are involved at a technical or professional level and need this information in this capacity I advise that you give our OLO wholesale section a call on 1 800 656 656 and they may be able to help.
    Tony
