Primus Australia has commenced the roll-out of 100 additional DSLAMs that it plans to install over the next six months, increasing its network reach by over 50 percent.

CEO, Ravi Bhatia, said: "This expansion of Primus infrastructure has been driven purely and simply by customer demand for broadband. Moreover, our infrastructure ownership allows us to guarantee quality and reliability to our customers."

He added: "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."

The move follow Primus announcing in September that it would boost the transmission capacity of the fibre optic network serving its DSLAMs in Telstra exchanges ten fold in response to customer demand for broadband capacity.

Primus announced a year ago that it had 181 DSLAMs installed in Australia and 144,000 broadband customers. {moscomment}
