We own and operate one of Australia’s most comprehensive telecommunications infrastructure portfolios, with broadcast transmission towers and co-location facilities strategically positioned across the country.

Building telecommunications infrastructure requires significant capital investment and time. These costs can be prohibitive for mobile network operators, broadcasters, and government organisations looking to expand their reach.

With 416 sites and 607 structures providing national coverage, our co-location sites offer a path to rapid deployment without the major upfront costs. Lease space on our towers and in our transmitter halls or use our portal services to build out your network capabilities and reach more customers.

Capabilities

Our co-location sites house and provide transmission capabilities to a range of technologies required by radio and TV broadcasters, telecommunications operators, and emergency service organisations. To offer the resilience and reliability these customers’ critical services demand, our sites are built with back-up power, cooling systems and network redundancy. As well, 24/7 monitoring through our network operations centres ensures potential issues are detected and addressed before they can impact our services.

Flexible and scalable, our co-location packages can include everything from simple co-location to maintenance options to comprehensive, fully managed services. You can install your own racks and shelter at our sites, or lease space in our shelters or existing racks. Power sharing and connection to our back-up generators are also available as additional services.

Our portfolio also includes satellite ground stations that support LEO and GEO constellation operations, located in strategic locations with unobstructed sky visibility, and that can leverage existing power and fibre infrastructure at priority sites.

Keeping our visitors, sites, and services safe is our top priority. That’s why we manage site access through strict protocols that ensure visitors can safely access our sites, are qualified for the work they plan to perform and are alerted to any safety issues. Our innovative site access app streamlines this process for customers through an intuitive user interface, simplified application, and secure visitor profile management.
