When we bring fibre from the street to your home/business, we require an External Termination Point (ETP) to be installed on the outside wall as per our agreement with Crown Fibre Holdings.
We need to be able to quickly and easily access the ETP to reinstate the connection in the event of an outage or fault. It's also necessary so we can clearly identify the different equipment - external equipment vs internal equipment.
There are certain requirements when it comes to installing an ETP, you can read more here.
