nbn® technology upgrades

NBN Co Limited (NBN Co) will be focusing efforts on extending its fibre-optic network to help enable higher speeds to premises across Australia.

This national broadband network upgrade activity allows eligible nbn customers who are currently on Fibre to the Node (FTTN) and Fibre to the Curb (FTTC) technology to upgrade to Fibre to the Premise (FTTP).

To take this opportunity up, you will need to:

be in an eligible area;
be a new or existing Optus customer with an FTTC or FTTN connection; and
choose a speed pack option available to you (if required)

For more information on this, you can go through our Fibre Upgrade page or contact us.

How does it work?

NBN Co funds the internet technology upgrade from FTTN or FTTC, to FTTP in eligible areas (standard install only)
You can change over to the new nbn technology once the installation work has been completed by NBN Co
Your old technology type will be removed once you upgrade to FTTP
If you're eligible and want to upgrade your nbn access technology, you may need to take up a specified minimum speed pack. We'll let you know the relevant speed pack requirement (which depends on your current plan and technology) before you agree to the upgrade
Find more information through our Optus nbn speed packs page
