Pricing Information

The BNT pricing information is presented as follows:

(i) BNT Circuits - Compressed Analogue Presented PAL Vision Circuits,

  • (i.1) Local Access Circuits - Connection Charge
  • (i.2) Local Access Circuits - Annual Rental
  • (i.3) Inter-CNAP Links - Annual Rental

(ii) BNT Circuits - Linear Analogue Presented PAL or Serial Digital Video (SDV) Vision Circuits.

  • (ii.1) Local Access Circuits - Connection Charge
  • (ii.2) Local Access Circuits - Annual Rental
  • (ii.3) Inter-CNAP Links - Annual Rental

Bulk Discounts (both Local Access Circuits and Inter-CNAP Links) are available on circuits in the same direction over the same route.

Where a BNT Local Access Circuit is not required (perhaps because the Customer already has a circuit into the CNAP) an access charge is levied which covers the cost of connecting another Vision Circuit to the switching equipment. The access charge is applied at the same rate as a Local Access Circuit of 0.5km Radial Distance (Connection Charge + Annual Rental).

Existing Analogue Presented PAL Vision Circuit Customers can migrate to Serial Digital Video (SDV) Vision Circuits by paying the Migration Charges.

At the end of the minimum term contract of 10 years, Customers who opt to extend the minimum term contract of 10 years, for a further 5 years minimum, will be entitled to a discount of 15% on the Annual Rental charges. For Inter-CNAP Links this 15% discount will be applied to Circuits in the forward direction only. Customers may also be entitled to further discounts on the Annual Rental charges depending on the total Annual Rental spend on BNT Circuits (see Volume Discounts - based on all BNT Circuits).
