DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/1e3800/australia_telco) has announced the addition of the "Australia - Telco Company Profiles - TransACT Communications Pty Limited" company profile to their offering.

TransACT Communications Pty Limited is a Canberra-based, privately owned company which builds and operates high-speed broadband communications infrastructure across the Australian Capital Territory region, including Canberra, Queanbeyan and other surrounding towns in southern New South Wales. The company delivers quadruple-play communications services of voice, high-speed data, subscription TV services and mobile services, via an MVNO with Vodafone.

TransACT Communications subscription television service offers a real-time Video-on-Demand service, a range of content across some 60 channels, including movies and sporting programs. The company continued with its network extension by provisioning ULL to exchanges where the FttC network did not cover. In 2007 the company began rolling out its FttP network in greenfield estates across the Australian Capital Territory region.

In 2008 TransACT Communications acquired Victorian carrier Neighbourhood Cable from TVG. Neighbourhood Cable is an owner and operator of HFC networks in Ballarat, Geelong and Mildura, and delivers similar triple-play communications services, excluding real-time Video-on-Demand. In 2010 Neighbourhood Cable commenced an upgrade of its network from DOCSIS2 to DOCSIS3 and is capable of delivering 100Mb/s internet services. Discussions with NBN Co were still proceeding in 2010.
