Benefits to the Developer

The benefits of an Open Access Platform ™ are many. From its ease and speed of installation, its incredible cost effectiveness over traditional, obsolescent structured cabling and its ability to greatly enhance the attractiveness of a development, all the way through to the tremendous revenues it will deliver into the future.

Versatility

An Open Access Platform is a versatile and flexible asset. Rather than spending a fortune on a costly and extensive structured cabling fit-out, an Open Access Platform allows the developer to run not only telecoms and data, but also intelligent building management, security cameras and communications, police, defence and emergency services communications, even street lighting, all from the one system.

Developers should note that many of the secondary and tertiary applications of the system, such as Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) for cellular phone coverage and deployment of antennas for police and emergency services (TETRA) can bring in very considerable streams of revenue.

Value

The savings can be tremendous, from the reduction in actual, physical cabling through to the need for far fewer underground ducts to be installed at the outset of the development. We estimate that in a typical multi-acre mixed use development we can reduce the cost of a full telecoms and data fit-out by up to 60%. Savings of this magnitude, combined with the revenue generating potential of the platform make the installation of an Open Access Platform an absolute must for the forward thinking and cost conscious developer.

Asset Enhancement

The installation of an Open Access Platform ™ makes a development much more attractive to potential tenants and investors. The knowledge that there are no limitations on which service providers they can choose can be a deciding factor for a foreign company when choosing where to set up their operation. Combine this with the safety, security, resilience and vast capacity of an Open Access platform and the owner/developer will clearly be in possession of an asset that adds up to a lot more than the sum of its parts, and one that is well worth advertising.
