Revised agreement
gives access to ADSL2+ and phone line rental
services
Internode has signed a
revised wholesale access agreement with Telstra that allows it to offer ADSL2+
broadband services through Telstra DSLAM-equipped exchanges nationally from next
month.
The new deal also enables
Internode to offer traditional voice line rental services using Telstra’s PSTN
(Public Switched Telephone Network) lines.
Internode expects to make
ADSL2+ services available through Telstra-enabled exchanges from December while
national voice line services are scheduled for April 2009. Pricing and other
details will be announced as each service is launched.
Internode offers ADSL2+
broadband services at more than 110 exchanges using its own DSLAM equipment and
350 exchanges through a wholesale agreement with Optus. The Telstra Wholesale
contract provides Internode with access to more than 1400 exchanges equipped with
Telstra ADSL2+ DSLAMs.
Internode managing director
Simon Hackett said the agreement substantially increased the reach of
Internode-provided ADSL2+ services. “We hope customers who only have access to
Telstra ADSL2+ ports will appreciate the option to move up to an
Internode-provided ADSL2+ service at last,” he said.
We look forward to offering
all our customers the option of a single Internode bill for their line rental,
their phone calls and their broadband services from April
2009."
