Description

This report provides pricing information on the Dark Fibre rates paid by the carrier/service provider community, and to a much more limited extent some enterprise sector customers such as universities and research organizations that have requirements for very high capacity connectivity. We also provide commentary on this emerging market.
The following metropolitan regions are individually tracked and reported on:
Sydney;
Melbourne;
Brisbane;
Adelaide; and
Perth.
Dark fibre prices for Newcastle and the Gold Coast are also tracked. However, due to relatively small sample sizes for these regions, these prices are included in Aggregate Metropolitan pricing figures, but not individually broken out.
The Australian Dark Fibre report provides pricing information for CBD and metropolitan area zones for fibre connections spanning 0-5 Km, 6-10 Km, and 11-25 Km, as well aggregate pricing across all the Capital Cities and metropolitan areas covered in our database.
Fibre pricing is expressed in both raw tariff and $/Km format for a single fibre pair. The prices measured in this benchmark document are market-based prices, all of which are currently valid.

Australian Dark Fibre: An Industry Outlook and Pricing Study

This report provides pricing information on the Dark Fibre rates paid by the carrier/service provider community, and to a much more limited extent some enterprise sector customers such as universities and research organizations that have requirements for very high capacity connectivity. We also provide commentary on this emerging market.
The following metropolitan regions are individually tracked and reported on:
Sydney;

Dark fibre prices for Newcastle and the Gold Coast are also tracked. However, due to relatively small sample sizes for these regions, these prices are included in Aggregate Metropolitan pricing figures, but not individually broken out.
The Australian Dark Fibre report provides pricing information for CBD and metropolitan area zones for fibre connections spanning 0-5 Km, 6-10 Km, and 11-25 Km, as well aggregate pricing across all the Capital Cities and metropolitan areas covered in our database.
Fibre pricing is expressed in both raw tariff and $/Km format for a single fibre pair. The prices measured in this benchmark document are market-based prices, all of which are currently valid.
In order for any specific dark fibre route to be reported, we require a minimum of 4 samples from multiple carriers/service providers. We do note, however, that the vast majority of the dark fibre routes measured by Telsyte contain 10 or more pricing samples, and in some cases up to 20 pricing samples.
The Australian Dark Fibre report provides an analysis of over 68 separate dark fibre deals.

The following Industry Price ranges are provided in this report:
- Individual Capital City Raw tariff prices per fibre pair for dark fibre runs of 0-5 Km, 6-10 Km and 11-25 Km;
- Aggregate Metropolitan Raw tariff prices per fibre pair for dark fibre runs of 0-5 Km, 6-10 Km and 11-25 Km;
- Individual Capital City $/Km prices per fibre pair for dark fibre runs of 0-5 Km, 6-10 Km and 11-25 Km;
- Aggregate Metropolitan $/Km prices per fibre pair for dark fibre runs of 0-5 Km, 6-10 Km and 11-25 Km;
