Frequently Asked Questions About nbn™ Plans
- FTTP – Fibre to the premises utilises fibre optic cable to connect your premises directly to nbn™ from the nearest node. In order for this connection to work, a utility box will be required to be installed outside of your premises in addition to a connection box which is installed inside the premises. FTTP is the best nbn™ connection type of technology which is more consistent in its delivery of ultrafast internet speed. You will need to connect a router into Network Termination Device (NTD) to access Internet service.
- FTTN – Fibre to the Node utilises fibre optic cable to the nearest node to your premises. The signal from the optic fibre cable then travels down through existing copper lines to the primary telephone wall socket. A VDSL 2 compatible modem router is required for this type of connection to work.
- FTTB – Fibre to the Building utilises fibre optic cable all the way to a shared point in the building’s communications room. From there, the connection travels along the existing copper lines to each customer. In order for this type of connection to function a VDSL 2 compatible modem router is required.
- FTTC – Fibre to the Curb is the newest technology available in which it is capable of bringing optic fibre cables almost all the way to your premises. The connection then travels through existing copper cables into the home for quick and stable internet. A nbn™ connection device, short for NCD, is then set up within the premises and then connected to the primary telephone wall socket. You will need to connect a router into nbn™ NCD to access Internet service.
- HFC – Hybrid Fibre Coaxial is utilised where there is an existing cable network can be used to make the final part of the connection. Similarly, with FTTN and FTTB, fibre optic cable is connected to a nearby node. A coaxial cable is then used to connect to a nbn™ device which is installed inside the customer’s premises. You will need to connect a router into nbn™ HFC NTD to access Internet service.

The Network Termination Device (NTD), also known as nbn™ connection box is required to be installed to connect to the nbn™ network. NBNCo installs the device inside your home which then connects to your Occom WiFi modem. The nbn connection box takes the data transmitted from fibre optic cables and converts it to electronic signals that your router can use. In the case of nbn™ Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) networks, one NTD can support more than one active internet service. On the day of connection, contact our support team to assure that your connection box is activated and working.

The New Development Charge is a fee implemented in 2016 which charges all connections made in areas that the fibre infrastructure provider (e.g. nbn™) have identified as within the boundary of a new development. The implementation of this fee was a decision was made by the Australian government to shift partial cost of the fibre infrastructure onto “the parties that use or benefit from them”. All service providers will charge this fee on behalf of nbn™ when the internet service is activated.
