Internode product manager Jim Kellett said the availability of NakedExtreme in Tasmania would expand rapidly during the next six months, and the launch of the service in the state would create the opportunity to fill in many metropolitan broadband blackspots. “We are installing our own equipment in an extra 10 telephone exchanges. That expansion will make Internode's NakedExtreme and Extreme ADSL2+ services available to more than 90,000 Tasmanian premises, including over 12,000 businesses.” Kellett said the company’s extreme broadband services are delivered to customers from telephone exchanges equipped with Internode’s own DSLAM equipment, and, he claimed, as a result, it can deliver faster and better quality broadband services at greater distances from the telephone exchanges. According to Kellett, NakedExtreme services extend broadband reach from 4.1 km to as far as 7.5 km, which he said increases potential broadband coverage area for an exchange from 52 square kilometres to more than 176 sq km. “NakedExtreme delivers a broadband service over a phone line with no dial tone. As well as offering low-cost, high-quality calls via the NodePhone VoIP service, it eliminates the need for a ‘dial tone' service rental that typically costs about $30 per month.” CONTINUED page 2 |
