TRANSPAC, also written Transpac, is the French public packet switching network open in December 1978 by the Transpac society. It offered the X.25 interface to users, a CCITT standard for which computer scientists of the CNET had played a major role. This network has been part of the worldwide X.25 network which, before the [[Internet, permitted data exchanges around the planet. Initially created for professional customers, was later used by millions of French terminals Minitels to access consumer applications, forerunners of those of the Internet.[1]
