Australian Telco giant ‘Primus’ has commenced a roll-out of
100 additional DSLAMs (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexers). Over the next 6 months
Primus intends to expand its Australian Broadband network by a
whopping 50%! They are yet to introduce ADSL2+ speeds to their Broadband list so their DSLAM network roll-out will be highly anticipated.
News of the expansion comes as a big surprise
considering the Government’s future intentions on implementing a
Fibre-to-the-Node network. The potential new FTTN network
may supersede many Primus ADSL ports thus making them unnecessary.
However, Primus Australia CEO ‘Mr Ravi Bhatia’ has suggested that the demand for high speed Broadband is extremely high and the roll-out will only strengthen Primus as one of Australia’s leading telecommunication operators.
“This deployment will increase our network reach by over 50%. This expansion of Primus infrastructure has been driven purely and simply by customer demand. Moreover, our infrastructure ownership allows us to guarantee quality and reliability to our customers”
“This investment is a vote of confidence in fair and balanced competition policy and regulatory environment in the Australian telecommunications market. Our new investment solidifies Primus’s position as one of the leading infrastructure based operators in Australia”
