Fibre to the Curb is a new access technology that will form part of the nbn broadband access network rollout to provide access to broadband services to Australian homes and businesses.
An nbn FTTC connection is used in circumstances where fibre is extended close to your premises, connecting to a small Distribution Point Unit (DPU), generally located inside a pit on the street. From here, the existing copper network is connected to the fibre to form the final nbn connection. To power your FTTC service with electricity and provide your connection to the nbn broadband access network, an FTTC nbn connection box will be required inside your home or business. In some cases, you may be eligible to perform self-installation of the nbn connection box.
For assistance with setting up your equipment, download the nbn FTTC setup guide, or watch the installation video below.
