Cable Locations

Digging near our Fibre Network

Our fibre network carries the vital communication link that connects our communities together.

If you are digging near our cables, we are happy to come out and locate them for you. Knowing where our cables are buried can save you an expensive repair bill.

Contact us to order a cable location service
When contacting us, be prepared to send detailed location information such as GPS coordinates and photos
You should use white spray paint to mark the area you are digging so our technician can locate the correct area for you
Our cables are not always sign posted. Marker signs or surface features give clues to the presence of our underground cables. Marker signs are usually placed within 10 metres of cables and so its important to ensure we have located the cables before you start digging.
Be aware that marker signs can be damaged or removed over time so it is important to check with us, just to be sure.
We do not endorse any other cable location service as they will not be working from our own network maps. It is illegal to open an NGN fibre asset such as pedestal or cable pit without permission.
