Identified: Dear Iristel Customers,

We are currently experiencing a service outage in Yellowknife that could be affecting inbound and outbound calls to and from the area.

Our carrier partners have been engaged and we have been advised that their partner carrier has experienced a fiber cable break between Acheson and Edmonton, Alberta. A technician has been dispatched to perform an OTDR test to identify the exact location of the fiber cut. We have yet to confirm whether this is the possible cause of the alarms in Yellowknife.

The next update from the carrier is expected at 02:30 ET.

At this time, we do not have an ETR yet. Please be assured that we are working closely with our carrier partners to restore services as quickly as possible.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding.

Sincerely, Iristel NOC
