In Australia, there are several types of NBN connections, and each can affect your speeds. Broadconnect offers plans that can work with all types of connections, including:
1. FTTP (Fibre to the Premises): This is the fastest connection type, delivering maximum speeds with fibre optic cables directly to your home.
2. FTTN (Fibre to the Node): Fibre optic cables run to a node in your street, with copper wiring connecting to your premises. This can affect speeds, depending on the distance to the node.
3. FTTC (Fibre to the Curb): This connection uses fibre optics to your curbside, with shorter copper cables connecting to your home for faster speeds compared to FTTN.
4. HFC (Hybrid Fibre Coaxial): This uses a combination of fibre optic and coaxial cables, providing fast internet over longer distances.
5. Fixed Wireless: This wireless connection is available in rural and regional areas, using ground-based towers to provide internet.
If you’re unsure which connection type you have, we can help you figure out the best plan for your needs.
