	Oftel announces further measures to support local loop unbundling
		"Local loop unbundling is one of the most complex pieces of regulation that Oftel has undertaken in recent years, as it has proved to be in all countries where unbundling has taken place.
		Local loop unbundling: provision of co-location in the form of co-mingling.
		Unbundling BT’s local loop will ensure that there is competition in the provision of upgraded loops and will enable different DSL technologies to be used offering more choice to consumers.

	Alternative Local Loop Technologies: A Review
		Building and maintaining local access networks has traditionally constituted the bulk of costs associated with the public switched telecommunication network (PSTN) not least because of its ubiquitous nature and, because it constitutes a bottleneck, the local loop is important from a regulatory and policy perspective.
		For those building broadband local loop connections today a hybrid network consisting of fibre to the curb and from there over the existing copper loop, seems to be preferred.
		Although some local loop technologies require certain regulation, such as management of the radio spectrum and laying cable, this should aim to be technologically neutral.

	DTI and Oftel defiant of proposed regulation on local loop \| OUT-LAW.COM
		The terms of a new European regulation have been agreed by telecoms ministers that appears to require BT to unbundle its local loop by the end of the year, six months sooner than Oftel had initially required of the telecoms giant.
		However, the DTI is claiming that the law will only require that member states implement a regulatory framework for unbundling by January 2001 and that the actual unbundling will not need to take place by that date.
		Local loop unbundling will mean that BT and its equivalent telecom companies across Europe will open access to local telephone exchanges to competitors.

	Local loop - RecipeFacts (Site not responding. Last check: )
		In telecommunications, the local loop (also referred to as a subscriber line) is the physical link or circuit, that connects from the demarcation point of the customer premises to the edge of the carrier, or telecommunications service provider, network.
		Traditionally, the local loop was wireline in nature from customer to central office, specifically in the form of an electrical circuit (i.e., loop) provisioned as a single twisted pair in support of voice communications.
		The local loop may terminate at a circuit switch owned by a CLEC (Competitive LEC) and housed in a POP, which typically is either an ILEC CO or a carrier "hotel".

		The monthly service fee that consumers pay for local telephone service, the subscriber line charge (see Subscriber Line Charge Fact Sheet), may not be enough to recover all of the costs of the local loop.
		To the extent an incumbent local telephone company does not recover all of its local loop costs through the subscriber line charge, it may still assess a Presubscribed Interexchange Carrier Charge for each multi-line business telephone line presubscribed to the subscriber’s long distance company.
		The per-minute charge long distance companies pay to incumbent local telephone companies for each call made by their customers was reduced by an even greater amount than the amount they pay for their Presubscribed Interexchange Carrier Charge payments and payments they make to ensure that all Americans have affordable access to telephone services.
