We\u2019ll cover what&#8217;s happening, what it means for your household, and how to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">check your NBN upgrade<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> today.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 500;\">What is FTTP?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FTTP stands for Fibre to the Premises. It\u2019s the fastest and most capable <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.letsbemates.com.au\/mate\/nbn-connection-types\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NBN connection type<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> available, delivering fibre optic cable directly to your home or business rather than stopping at a street-level node or pit. Its technology enables you to access fast internet speeds of up to 1,000 Mbps or 2,000 Mbps. Here is how it compares to other NBN technologies:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>FTTN (Fibre to the Node):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Fibre reaches a cabinet in your street, then copper takes over for the last leg. Speeds vary depending on how far you live from the node.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>FTTC (Fibre to the Curb):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Generally faster than FTTN, FTTC uses fibre-optic cabling up to a central utility pit, where copper wires carry your connection the rest of the way.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>HFC (Hybrid Fibre Coaxial):<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Uses the existing pay-TV cable network for the final connection. It\u2019s generally fast and reliable, though performance can vary at peak times.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 500;\">What\u2019s Driving the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 500;\">NBN Fibre Upgrade in Melbourne<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 500;\">?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the NBN was originally rolled out across Melbourne, a mix of technologies was used depending on the suburb, the existing infrastructure and the timing of the build. Many inner and middle-ring suburbs ended up on FTTN.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Federal Government and NBN Co are now investing to fix this by extending <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fibre internet Melbourne<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">-wide so that FTTN and FTTC households can upgrade to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">full fibre in Melbourne<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The state has also received additional co-investment through the Connecting Victoria program, expanding the upgrade footprint by up to 100,000 additional premises.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The result is a rolling, suburb-by-suburb program that is progressively making <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.letsbemates.com.au\/mate\/nbn-fibre-connect\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FTTP Melbourne<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> upgrades<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> available to households.
