nbn Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) Connection

An nbn Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) connection is used in circumstances where a fibre optic line will be run from the nearest available fibre node, directly to your premises.

FTTP connections require an nbn network device to be installed inside your home. This device requires power to operate and can only be installed by an approved nbn installer which MATE will organise on your customer’s behalf once they sign-up.
