The Department is seeking tenders to trial and provide analysis on the suitability of different technologies to deliver fixed voice services in rural and remote areas of Australia.

The Department is seeking value for money solutions from the market that will:

  • objectively assess different platforms available outside the NBN fixed-line footprint for their suitability to support high-quality and reliable voice services
  • trial voice services in a representative range of regions across Australia, with different geographic, topographic and climatic characteristics
  • provide robust analysis to assist in understanding reasons for any variability in performance of services over time including but not limited to factors such as weather, topography, equipment or local power issues.
