The lightning speed of technology advances in telecommunication created demand, speed, and volume of data transmission. Most services and applications developed call for bandwidth and speed to satisfy performance and video streaming needs. The demand of services resulted in hardware upgrades as well as transmission media deployment increases, which create a more complex environment to nail down the network resilience performance. When the deployment of transmission media is geographically dispersed, the network will be given a better opportunity to enhance performance of resilience. Also, when hardware upgrades are not concentrated to a few main locations, it will also help to improve resilience. The dispersed topography will not create blind spots when there is damage as a result of significant seismic event. All telecommunication networks are designed to an optimum demand pattern. It will never be built to satisfy everyone calling or using the network services at the same time. However, in and right after a medium to large seismic event, the demand of 3 to 50 times the normal rate have been recorded. This paper suggests a few options to reduce the stress on telecommunication network within this high demand period to enhance the network resilience performance. These options are attempts to establish a standard approach to substantiate telecommunication seismic resilience performance.
