The scope of the panel is to provide access to infrastructure, services and technologies that enable the transmission of information over distances through electronic means across three Service Towers:

• Carriage: telecommunications products that enable communications, or the transfer of data, between two or more static locations. These services can be delivered with a range of underlying transmission media and infrastructure to suit diverse needs,
• Mobility: telecommunications products that enable communications, connectivity and access to data from almost any location, without a dependency on end-to-end static infrastructure or fixed customer locations. These services often leverage wireless technologies such as cellular networks and are essential for use cases requiring access to resources and communications while on the move, and
• Compound Services: a broad range of telecommunications, and telecommunications adjacent products provided for the purposes of communications, data transfer, and collaboration internal and external to a customer’s organisation. Compound Services are frequently dependent upon the delivery and operation of telecommunications infrastructure and products which can be provided discretely within the scope of other Service Towers.
