Update
Following on from our last update, the fibre supplier has advised they were unable to find precise location. The supplier has done more testing throughout the day and say the fibre is fine. The internal patching within the datacentre has also been tested again and is testing fine.
The internal patch connections have also been checked however the fibre still isn’t passing a signal end to end.
A third party contractor is being brought in to preform independent testing of both the internal datacentre and external between datacentre spans.
