The different flavours of the NBN™
NBN™ FTTP
Fibre optic cable will lead all the way to your premises, terminating at your NBN™ Utility Box on an outside wall.
NBN™ FTTB
Fibre optic cable connects to the building’s Main Distribution Frame (MDF), typically in the basement. From there, the MDF will connect to the wall socket in your unit via the building’s internal copper cabling.
NBN™ FTTN
Fibre optic cable connects to a node (a cabinet in your street or a street nearby). Copper cabling connects from the node to a wall socket in your premises (for some premises the copper passes through a Main Distribution Frame).
NBN™ FTTC
Fibre optic cables connect to a small node close to your premises and existing copper cables deliver broadband to an NBN™ FTTC Connection Device in your premises.
NBN™ HFC
Coaxial cables deliver broadband to an NBN™ HFC Connection Device in your premises.
