Points to remember-2mbps and above.

1)

Tariff is given for Chargeable Distance 5 to 500 kms .

2)

For Local leads 3 way charging principle applicable.

3)

No additional charge for local lead if

4)

Distance > 500 Kms

AND

Capacity / Bandwidth is 45 Mbps and above

When the circuit is provided on MLLN System NTU charge is
to be billed, if MLLN Modem is provided by BSNL

5)

Modem rent Rs 10000/- per annum for 2Mbps V35/G703 type

and Rs.18000/- for 2Mbps Ethernet.

High Speed Data Circuits N*64Mbps

Tariff for capacity ranging from 128 Kbps to 1 Mbps is

arrived at by multiplying the tariff for leased circuit of 64
Kbps by the Co-efficient given in the tariff letter; subject
to Maximum of respective distance slabs of 2 Mbps
rates.

Limiting the charges to 2Mbps.

Eg: CD is 15 Kms and Speed=512kbps
64 kbps for 15 Kms=18463
512kbps for 15 Kms= 18463*4.8=88622
Rate for 2mbps for 15 Kms=33344
Hence the rate of 512kbps for 15 kms should be limited
to Rs.33344.

State Wide Area Network (SWAN)

BSNL will provide OFC without any additional cost for
POPs which have an aggregated BW of minimum 10
Mbps (5x2 Mbps)
State Government has to give a commitment that it will
procure entire BW from BSNL for a period of 5 years.
Discount of 74% on main channel is allowed
Discount of Local Lead @ 30% is allowed on the total
local lead charges for SWAN projects
Discounts are allowed only if the State Government does
not charge for ROW

MPLS - VPN Service

MPLS is an acronym for Multi Protocol Label Switching
MPLS based VPNs reduce customer networking
complexity, costs and totally do away with the
requirement of in-house technical work force.
It is a cutting edge technology which offers data rates
that can be increased from 64kbps to 155 Mbps.
It provides absolute security through exclusive labeled
path for transacting business using this network

Billing Aspects
Circuits are billed annually in advance as per the annual billing cycle
of SSA.
Now customer can opt for quarterly billing of circuits as per order
dated 5.9.2001 and 18.11.2003
In respect of new customers opting for quarterly billing from 1st year
itself, undertaking for minimum period of hiring of the leased line for
one year to be obtained.
Since there is no integrated commercial and billing package for
leased circuits, monitoring of receipt of completed advice note is to
be ensured through maintaining of advice note registers. This will
avoid non billing of circuits.
