Fibre optic cabling is now quickly replacing copper, as it ensures data transfers at a higher speed. There are three types of NBN Connections: FTTP – fibre to the premises; FTTC – fibre to the curb; FTTN – fibre to the node. Unfortunately, bandwidth is like the width of a road, and traffic congestion can slow down performance, especially during peak use times. This usually occurs in the evenings, on weekends and in the school holidays. Also, the greater the distance from the node, the slower the maximum achievable speed.

Optical fibre is used by many telecommunications companies to transmit telephone signals, internet communication and cable television signals. It is also used in a multitude of other industries, including medical, defence/government, for data storage, and industrial/commercial.
