Product Overview

Virtual Co-location (VCL) is an arrangement that provides Interconnecting Carriers with the capability to connect transmission facilities to TELUS' network facilities in TELUS Premises.

Under this arrangement, the Interconnecting Carrier provides and places outside fibre optic cable to the meet point. The Interconnecting Carrier provides and leases to TELUS sufficient additional outside fibre optic cable to allow TELUS to place the fibre optic cable from the meet point to the transition cabinet. The Interconnecting Carrier also provides and leases to TELUS Transmission Equipment to be placed by TELUS in TELUS Premises.

TELUS connects the outside fibre optic cable provided by the Interconnecting Carrier with TELUS' inside fibre optic cable at the transition cabinet. TELUS also connects TELUS' inside fibre optic cable to the Transmission Equipment provided by the Interconnecting Carrier in order to facilitate interconnection by the Interconnecting Carrier to TELUS' network facilities pursuant to an interconnection agreement or a TELUS Tariff, for the interchange of switched or non-switched traffic.
