Two more exchanges suffer RFS delays
23 Jun 2004 | 18.34 Europe/London
Two exchanges in Wales have become the latest to fall foul of delays in Ready For Service dates. Trefnant and Caerwys have had their dates moved to the 28th July. Trefnant was supposed to be enabled today. As this map shows, the two exchanges are in close proximity. The table below shows the original RFS dates and the new one.
The delay is said to be due to insufficient SDH (fibre-optic backhaul) capacity being available.
| Exchange | Old RFS date | New RFS date |
|---|---|---|
| Trefnant | 23/06/2004 | 28/07/2004 |
| Caerwys | 07/07/2004 | 28/07/2004 |
