What is Fibre?
ULTRA FAST BROADBAND!
The discussion surrounding fibre-optic cables frequently arises in conversations related to telephone systems, cable television, and the Internet. Fibre-optic lines consist of strands of optically pure glass, comparable in thickness to human hair, capable of transmitting digital information across extensive distances at the speed of light. An increasing portion of our daily Internet activities now involves rich media content and the uploading and downloading images and videos at ever-accelerating rates. Over the years, the demand for Internet-based services and fibre and ultra-fast broadband (UFB) has experienced significant growth and is now prevalent in Australia.
Your Internet or data connection predominantly relies on copper wiring, which offers a relatively slower transmission rate. In contrast, fibre-optic technology significantly enhances data transfer speeds for Internet-based services into residences, commonly called “ultrafast broadband” or UFB.
Home users are increasingly transferring larger files across the cyberspace network in contemporary times, a trend projected to escalate up to 50 times its current rate within the next decade. The proliferation of the latest smartphones, tablets, televisions, and other emerging technologies is propelling this demand, with the need for faster and more reliable connectivity serving as a primary catalyst for providers and users in installing fibre-to-the-home broadband connections.
Fibre-optic technology represents a substantial advancement in technological capabilities; however, the effectiveness of cabling, equipment, and devices is contingent upon their quality and installation.
With the appropriate equipment, fibre-optic technology significantly augments your capacity to operate multiple computers, Internet-enabled televisions, live-streamed gaming, and music simultaneously—eliminating issues related to slow speeds, interference, and service dropouts, all of which are inherent challenges linked to conventional copper wiring. Fibre enables you to choose between merely securing faster Internet access for your computer or embracing emerging technologies, such as Internet television and live-streaming of movies, music, and games.
FASTER UPLOAD & DOWNLOAD
Compared to previous standards, enhanced upload speeds result in superior clarity and quality in video calling applications like Skype and Facetime. Sharing substantial photo or video files among friends or platforms like TradeMe and YouTube is now accomplished in seconds rather than minutes.
Improved download speeds provide access to advanced services, including Pay-Per-View HD offerings, HDC gaming, and video calling functionalities. Fibre technology facilitates real-time capabilities for business applications, including remote offices, teleworking, e-commerce, and similar functions, thereby granting a competitive advantage and flexibility for lifestyle and home-based work.
Modern devices, from mobile applications, smartphones, tablets, computers, comprehensive home automation and security systems, and internet televisions, are increasingly designed with the digital revolution in mind.
While it is possible to continue using your existing copper wire broadband connection, the limited bandwidth may impede the reliable delivery of future services to your residence. Fibre optic technology is the most future-proof option for those constructing a new home.
It is advisable to consult your current Internet Service Provider (ISP) to determine whether they offer a fibre solution suitable for your needs. Your ISP will subsequently request the connection from the National Broadband Network (NBN) to your residence, and we will oversee the installation of fibre cabling and connections throughout your home, ensuring a reliable and hassle-free ultra-high-speed internet experience.
