Abstract
Embodiments relate to a method for detecting a broken binder in an access network including a plurality of telecommunication lines grouped in respective binders, executed by a detection device, including identifying a plurality of telecommunication lines for which a transmission interruption has been detected within a given time period obtaining line data associated with the respective identified telecommunication lines, for respective pairs of identified telecommunication lines, determining a virtual distance between the two telecommunication lines, in function of the associated line data, determining at least one cluster of telecommunication lines in function of the virtual distances, and detecting a broken binder in function of the determined at least one cluster.
