CurrentTelstra's fixed network is the digital backbone for Australia. It connects consumers, enterprises, government, hyperscalers, and wholesale customers across the full breadth of Australia and our islands. It provides backhaul for Australia's best mobile network. It is a huge component of Australia's internet (AS1221), and connects Australia to the rest of the world (via Telstra International, AS4637).The planning, design, and modernisation teams are responsible for meeting the constant demand for data and bandwidth growth, on the right timeline, at the right capital efficiency. The network has a rich heritage, from the earliest days of copper connectivity in Australia, to the latest optical and satellite technologies, giving an abundance of legacy challenges and modernisation opportunities.
