Problems faced in installing, operating and maintaining Rural Telecommunications Systems are mainly due to the following reasons. In rural areas we do not have proper roads, and since OFCs are generally laid by the side of roads, laying down these lines is difficult. Out door network is predominantly over head. Very often they snap, causing difficulties to subscribers as well as to service providers.

Problems faced in installing, operating and maintaining Rural
Telecommunications Systems are mainly due to the following reasons:
(1) Unstable/erratic power supply: In our country, we suffer from
unstable power supply. There is load shedding also. This is the fate of the entire country. In urban areas also it is a problem. In rural areas load shedding is more and power supply is still more unstable. This poses a difficulty in running exchanges in rural areas, because exchanges cannot run on batteries for long hours.
(2) Insufficient voltage or over voltage: There is also the problem of
insufficient voltage or over voltage, and to stabilize power at an even level is difficult and costly. (3) Extreme weather conditions specially in hilly areas: When it is very hot, AC’s may not work. But AC’s are a must for the proper functioning of exchanges and at times, in hilly areas, there may be snowfalls causing short- circuiting and power failure. (4) No proper roads: In rural areas we do not have proper roads, and since OFCs are generally laid by the side of roads, laying down these lines is a problem. (5) Difficult terrain: In hilly areas, which are mostly rural, Microwave UHF becomes impossible, because hills come between two sites. IDR option is very expensive due to high cost of transponder bandwidth, though it is sometimes left as the only feasible option. (6) Less skilled man power: At present manpower of BSNL, especially skilled manpower, is sufficient only to manage the existing telephone system. To extend the system to rural areas we require greater manpower. (7) Out door network being predominantly over head: At present the out door network is predominantly over head. Very often they snap, causing difficulties to subscribers as well as to service providers. To avoid this difficulty under grounding is a desirable option. But that is expensive and also laying down is difficult because of non-availability of roads. (8) Problems of earthing of Exchanges: This problem is frequently encountered especially in hilly areas. There due to stony ground it is difficult to have a good earthing for the exchange. This leads to more faults of card damage due to lightening. Also the turnaround time of card repair is more due to long distances and scattered connections. . (9) Remote locations: When an exchange develops fault, it is difficult to send experts to repair it, because of the remote locations of the exchanges and thus the fault restoration time is more.
