3608 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE No. 175

• Charge per installation for installation of additional circuits on an existing MTU minimum charge $150.00

Note:
The charge will be based on actual costs involved (labour & materials) but will not be less than $150.00.

5.9.2 Monthly Access Charges

Point-to-Point Monthly Access Charges

This service provides synchronous leased-line transmission between two items of data terminal equipment — such as computers, visual display units, customer multiplexers, or similar equipment.

Standard Digital Access Charges

• Charge per end of circuit for standard digital 2.4 kbit/s $160.00
• Charge per end of circuit for standard digital 4.8 kbit/s $170.00
• Charge per end of circuit for standard digital 9.6 kbit/s $190.00
• Charge per end of circuit for standard digital 19.2 kbit/s $300.00
• Charge per end of circuit for standard digital 48 kbit/s $330.00
• Charge per end of circuit for standard digital 64 kbit/s $650.00
• Charge per end of circuit for standard digital 128 kbit/s $800.00

Analogue Access Charges

The analogue access is based on the existing digital access plus additional charges for A2 circuit access and analogue conversion:

• Charge per end of circuit for A2 circuits $80.00 plus
• Additional charge for analogue conversion $160.00

This gives monthly access charges for analogue links of:

• Charge per end of circuit for analogue 2.4 kbit/s $400.00
• Charge per end of circuit for analogue 4.8 kbit/s $410.00
• Charge per end of circuit for analogue 9.6 kbit/s $430.00

Note:
Analogue access is not available for other speeds or for Multistream access.

Multistream Access

The Multistream access service enables a number of low speed circuits (2.4 kbit/s, 4.8 kbit/s or 9.6 kbit/s) to be multiplexed onto a 48kbit/s link between the customer’s site and the nearest DSTN Terminal Centre.

Multistream access charges apply to the Multistream access and to the circuits multiplexed on to the 48kbit/s stream.

• Charge per Multistream access $350.00
  (Each Multistream access provides up to 48 kbit/s capacity.)

• Charge per Multistream Circuit access $65.00
  (Charged for each low speed circuit accessing the Multiplexer)

Asynchronous-Service Access Charges

An asynchronous service is also available. There is a standard monthly surcharge per NTU or MTU interface for the asynchronous service:

• Additional charge per NTU for asynchronous service $20.00
  (analogue or digital, 2.4kbit/s — 9.6kbit/s)

• Additional charge per NTU for asynchronous service $35.00
  (digital only) at 19.2kbit/s

• Additional charge per Multistream Circuit access for Asynchronous Service $20.00
  (digital only — 2.4kbit/s to 9.6kbit/s)

Note:
Multistream accesses cannot be used for the remote end of Asynchronous Multipoint circuits.

Multipoint-Service Monthly Access Charges

The standard Digital Data Service multipoint service allows 2 or more subsidiary or tributary stations to be connected to one control station such as a host computer. There is a technical limitation of 100 subsidiaries or tributaries connected on the one line to the host computer.

Operating speeds for the multi-point service can be up to 19.2 kbit/s (48 kbit/s, 64 kbit/s and 128 kbit/s multipoint service is not available). All terminal interfaces in a multipoint service must operate at the same speed. Analogue access to tributary terminals is limited and the control station must be connected to the Digital Services Transmission Network through a digital link.

Basic point-to-point access charges apply to all ends (see 5.12.2 above). As well, there is a multipoint surcharge that applies to the tributary ends of the circuits:
