In the case of Mobistar-sited Interconnect, the interconnected Operator provides the
entire transmission path. It means that the Operator has to install the necessary
transmission equipment 3 at Mobistar's premises. By definition, therefore, the point of
demarcation (POD) is located at Mobistar's premises.
Mobistar St-Michel site is the only site of the Mobistar Network foreseen to offer
Mobistar-sited interconnection for Operator’s transmission equipment. As this site will
disappear in the near future to be replaced by a new site in Bordet, Mobistar is currently
not able to describe the conditions or prices of a Mobistar-sited Interconnect solution in
this Reference Interconnect Offer (cf. section 2.8.4).
Therefore, Mobistar reserves its rights to update the conditions and prices for Mobistarsited
Interconnect once it disposes of the relevant information. Meanwhile, if an Operator
expresses a specific request to a Mobistar-sited Interconnect, Mobistar will communicate
to and discuss with the Operator the specific conditions, prices and facilities.
The Mid-Span Interconnect :
Mid-Span Interconnect is a form of Interconnection whereby the Interconnect Link is
provided in part by Mobistar and in part by the Operator. The Demarcation Point must
be situated at a location in the Brussels region where both Parties’ cables meet and
where the necessary Mobistar equipment is available. At present, by way of example,
Mobistar offers Mid-Span Interconnect to several operators through the Blue Tower
POP. The exact location of the Demarcation Point needs to be agreed upon ultimately
by Mobistar. Indeed, based on the location proposed, Mobistar will communicate the
feasibility to establish a mid-span Interconnect at this specific location.
The final cost of this solution will depend on the choice of this location. Therefore, prices
for this specific Interconnect Link Service will be made available by Mobistar on specific
3 See below in section 2.4.
