<div>I imagine with the benefit of hindsight
they are now doing a cost/benefit on each exchange and seeing if
its worth putting in.<br>
Its probably cheaper for them to loose service for a while and fix
it rather than put eleventy million halon systems in.<br>
<br>
I do hope NBNco is doing a lessons learnt from this though, their
concentration feels like its going to be much higher, loosing a
POI for a couple of weeks would be a "bad thing".<br>
I wonder at what point in the network it would be feasible to slap
a wireless/satellite/whatever on top of a box and replace the POI
(at a reduced rate) until the POI is back up.<div><div><br>

<div dir="ltr">No, but cant say I was particularly looking for
them. I suppose I kind of assumed there might be something like
a gas based system in there though. I mean, theres a lot of
expensive gear, you'd think you'd want to avoid damaging it,
and/or losing the building. Imagine if they had to rebuild, the
outage would have lasted months, instead of the weeks they
managed to restore service in.

<div>Ignorance aside, and apart from the obvious "it
would cost a shit load to add it to them all", are there any
particular reasons why major regional exchanges wouldn't have
fire suppression?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To me it seems that places like Warrnambool and
sites with similar significance (the ones Telstra refer to as
KTPs) could probably benefit from some kind of suppression.
These events might be rare, but they have a big impact when
they happen.</div>

There were unlikely to be any.
