Exetel's Residential Fibre Services

Fibre Availability

Fibre broadband services are increasingly becoming available around Australia as the NBNCo 'switches on' various locations and independent providers such as Opticomm and Telstra make fibre services available in new housing estates in NSW, Queensland, South Australia and Victoria. In South Brisbane, where a complete copper line exchange had to be replaced by Telstra fibre, Exetel works with each of these carriers to provide well priced and provisioned services to end users and can now offer fibre broadband data services in:

Why NBN Corporation?

The current copper network has been 'in the ground' for a very long time and has been replaced and added to for more than 100 years. It has been in its 'sunset' years ever since Telecom Australia (as it was then) decided to begin replacing it with an optical fibre service back in the 1970s when it introduced ISDN which is now used by most businesses of any size around Australia today.

Fibre may be a preferred service for all sorts of different residential end users who, for whatever reasons, need speeds greater than those that can be provided by ADSL2. In the areas where fibre is already available or is going to shortly become available speeds of 8 Mbps to 100 Mbps (down) are being made available. If maximum speed of downloading/uploading is required then fibre is the only choice.

Fibre should be more reliable than copper based ADSL because it is a 'brand new' deployment of an inherently simpler technology that is far less prone to the current bug bears of aging copper networks and Australia's vicious climate that swings between drought and flood and fierce heat and cold in so many parts of the continent. However while that appears to be obvious there are no statistics to support any view of what that might mean to an end user yet.

From October 1st 2011 the NBNCo will end its trials and wherever NBNCo fibre is available an end customer can order a fibre service from whatever ISPs are able to provide services over NBNCo infrastructure. Exetel can provide fibre services through NBNCo infrastructure in a growing number of geographic locations that are indicated on the side bars of this page.

Can I Get A Fast Fibre Service?

To see if your residence or small business can connect to one of the new fibre services please 'click' on the areas shown on the side bars which will give you a list of streets in the areas available. These listings are NOT 100% accurate at this time but they will give you a very good idea as to the locations where the fibre services are available.

If your residence is shown as 'fibre ready' then go to the pricing page for that area and find out more about the costs or other activation and operational aspects.
