		Absolutely.  Hard to imagine a datacentre of any repute
that relies on  
		"Commercial Power".  If Optus doesn't actually have
their own gen sets  
		at Elizabeth St then you'd have to question their
commitment to their  
		network and their customers.

with a Generator to

POP/DC providers to

they work too. We

				Apparently Optus has a Major Fibre Cut
between Elizabeth St
				

				Sydney CBD
				

				and their Roseberry Exchange.
				




				Affecting half of their CBD ATM network.
