Primus upgrades DSLAM backhaul tenfold

Business IT - Networking

Primus Australia says it will boost the transmission capacity of the fibre optic network serving its ADSL DSLAMs in Telstra exchanges by ten fold in response to customer demand for broadband capacity.

Primus Australia CEO and managing director, Ravi Bhatia, said: "This major investment in bolstering our fibre optic network capacity has been driven by customer demand and market expansion. It is also a vote of confidence in the continued success of Primus in the Australian telecommunications market." Mr Bhatia said.

Most of Primus' DSLAM will be connected to the backhaul network using wavelength division multiplexing. According to Primus, this means that the backhaul capacity from each DSLAM will be readily upgradeable to speeds as high as 10Gbps (by activating additional wavelengths in the same fibre).

Upgrades will be applied initially to the networks in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth and then progressively in other centres.
