Business NBN™ service for the
modern workplace.

Yes. Switching to the NBN is necessary for most areas in Australia in order to continue receiving Internet service. As the NBN is rolled out across the country, existing ADSL network connections are being switched off. This means you won’t receive calls over a traditional phone line as well as have access to the Internet via cable or ADSL once the network is off.

It depends on the phone. If you have an existing analogue phone, then it should work on NBN Fibre connections once plugged into the voice port marked UNI-V on the modem or NTD box. In other cases, consider using a mobile phone.

It would depend on the NBN type to be installed in your premises. If your area is eligible for Fibre to the Premises or FTTP, then you would need a connection box and a utility box installed. The utility box, also called the Premises Connection Device (PCD) is installed on an exterior wall close to the distribution board or electrical meter. It should be at least 255mm away from drainpipes, water meters, gas pipes, and electricity meters, and 410mm off the ground. As for the connection box, it is attached to an interior wall located opposite the utility box installed on the exterior wall. This connection box must be placed in a visible and accessible location.

It may sound like a daunting task, but it is easy and simple as contacting your Internet service provider (ISP). Contact them and request to upgrade your service if the NBN is available in your area. If in case the NBN is not available yet, then you may look for other options such as Fixed Wireless.
