Still getting slower or lower than expected internet speeds from your Retail Service Provider.
Your home may need to have the cable that runs from the street pit to the nbn outlet replaced with with an nbn purpose built cable that bypasses all of your building’s existing phone cables, alarms, and splitters.
Maybe, you want to know if you are wiring your home correctly to make and take full advantage of the nbn.
Knowing how you are connected to the nbn. Access Network is a very important first step.
The Technologies used to get the nbn are called the Multi Technology Mix (MTM) and includes the following types of connection:
There are some advantages and some disadvantages to all of these technologies which have been identified.
It is important to understand that copper cable and wires are still important because most houses have a copper connection.
Generally when a new technology is deployed the lead-in (the pipe from the street pit to the house) will need to be replaced or re-designed.
Work at the house accounts to being the highest cost to get the nbn installed.
The installation of new work to an existing service especially if the house was heritage listed would become a very long drawn out process.
An advantage to this technology was that in most cases the equipment provided to the customer is compatible to the new VDSL. signals keeping Mum happy as there was no increase in the number of boxes and wires on her kitchen bench!
Fewer problems exist as the number of modifications to existing cable are kept to a minimum as modifications can be expensive and noisy.
Again, an advantage is that the equipment provided to the customer is compatible the new VDSL. signal, again keeping Mum happy as there was no increase in the number of boxes and wires on her kitchen bench!
This system can be hindered by the effects of poor cabling inside the house as is the case with FTTN.
With FTTC. the connecting unit is located in the pit outside the house and is powered up with a unit located inside the house.
In the past 30 years there may have been an alarm panel, ADSL. splitter and more telephone outlets installed.
All of these modifications generally cause problems for the signal.
Since your house has been built a number of Technicians have been called in to provide cabling services
Every installation is different, so you have many cables in your building.
This network has been used to provide faster customer connections to the nbn.
The nbn equipment replaces the existing cable modem that is then connected to the modem from the retail service provider (RSP).
If the nbn equipment is located in the lounge then there are power points and places to locate the equipment correctly to provide reliability.
These are the technologies that have been used for remote locations and smaller country towns.
At this time the data rates are lower than the other technologies but something is better than nothing.
Sky muster satellite has over 100,000 customers using 2 geostationary satellites.
The use of 5G will be a step that the nbn is likely to take in the need to provide the nbn for a very wide audience with a very high quality of service.
