The NBN Fibre: No More Tripping Over Wires

With more and more houses getting connected to the internet via fibre optic internet, Australian homes would soon be wire-free! Sounds impossible? When the first television set was sold on the market, no one could have ever imagined that it would need a remote control to make it work better. With first computers, it seemed impossible to lug this bulky piece of equipment around. Now we've got laptops, tablets and 'phablets'.. And who knows how smaller and sleeker computing gadgets could be in a few years!

Getting Smarter

Things have certainly changed, and you can expect more changes in the near future. Given the popularity of Smartphones, the concept of a "connected device" translated to televisions way faster than we expected. Now SmartTV is becoming popular. Smart TVs feature a home screen that gives you access to videos, music, apps and more!

Smart TVs use DLNA, a system that lets you stream media from Smartphones and computers to your TV. Yes, you can say goodbye to recordable CDs and USB stick! The NBN Fibre broadband makes it all possible to stream media fast and easy. Want to download a movie? No worries! You can download a movie (1GB) in around 1 minute. And download a high definition movie (4GB) in around 7 minutes via fibre optic internet.

The state-of -the-art fibre optic technology via the NBN delivers ultra-fast and reliable fibre broadband, with speeds up to 100 Mbps. It's installed by running fibre-optic cable right up to your home!

No more tripping over wires

So are you the clumsy one? Good news. When we say no more tripping over wires, that include enjoying wireless home appliances. Less accidents in the house! Also it's just a matter of time, your vacuum cleaner, microwave oven, garage door, and anything that makes use of electricity can be connected via your laptop. All you need to do is access your main circuit stored in your hard drive and switch on what's needed. Your job is to simply sit back and watch your appliances work via your computer screen!

Future-proof Solutions

The NBN fibre broadband comes with a myriad of potentials. Modern homes and lifestyle and doing things with ease are just some of them. That's what's in store in the future. This might sound unworkable but if there's one thing that you should know about the fibre optic internet, it's that you must never underestimate its ability to connect with just about anything!

The numbers

According to NBN Co., 70,100 homes and businesses had signed up for an NBN connection at the end of June 2013, of which 33,600 were accessing services via fibre. 22,400 were at brownfield sites and the remaining 13,200 at greenfield sites.

The NBN services are not available in all areas or to all homes. Call your NBN provider to check the eligibility of your household.
