The nbn^® network is not currently available in your building

We have made several attempts to initiate the process of establishing an nbn network connection to your building, however we have been unsuccessful in our engagement with the building’s authorised representative. Consequently, nbn does not currently plan to install a network connection to your building, unless we receive a request from the Owners’ Corporation.

If you currently use existing fixed line phone or internet services there are a number of implications to be aware of:

Critical copper services such as emergency lift phones and monitored fire alarm systems may be at risk of disconnection.*
Occupiers may not be able to continue to access other critical services connected to the existing Fixed Line networks such as medical alarms and emergency call systems, monitored security alarms and fax machines.^{^}
Existing fixed line services will be disconnected at a future date and occupiers will not be able to make phone calls or access the internet over the Fixed Line network unless the nbn supplied equipment is installed at the property. The disconnection of existing Fixed Line services will not affect occupier's ability to access phone and internet services over mobile networks.
Future requests for an nbn network connection will result in costs payable by the Owners Corporation and/or owners/occupiers.

However, if your phone and internet services are already provided via another fibre network, they will continue to operate as normal unless your provider advises otherwise.

nbn strongly recommends that you contact your current provider of phone and internet services, or visit www.nbn.com.au/switchoff for more information about whether your services will be impacted by the rollout of the nbn network.^#

Please do not hesitate to contact us should you decide to request an installation in the future.

Note: Some customers may be given an earlier disconnection date from their phone and internet provider. Please contact your current provider for further information.

Although most existing services will be replaced by the nbn network, there are some services that should not be impacted. These include those services provided over non-nbn fibre networks, as well as some services in some apartment complexes, and some business and Special Services. If you are currently receiving broadband services using one of these networks, your broadband services will not be disconnected and you do not need to move to the nbn network if you do not want to. nbn strongly recommends you contact your current phone and internet provider for more information.

nbn™ Sky Muster™ and nbn™ Sky Muster™ Plus are subject to eligibility criteria. Premises identified by nbn as medium/large business premises are not to be serviced by nbn™ Sky Muster™ or nbn™ Sky Muster^™ Plus. The nbn™ Satellite product available to medium/large business premises is business nbn™ Satellite Service. If you’re interested in nbn™ Sky Muster™ or nbn™ Sky Muster™ Plus services or believe your premises has been incorrectly categorised please contact your phone and internet provider.

The business nbn Satellite Service provides voice support for VoIP carriage and is not a voice provider.

An end customer’s experience, including the speeds actually achieved over the nbn™ network, depends on the nbn™ access technology and configuration over which services are delivered to your premises, whether you are using the internet during the busy period, and some factors outside nbn’s control (like your equipment quality, software, broadband plan, signal reception and how your service provider designs its network).

Equipment provider selected for NBN Co data centres

16 November 2010

NBN Co, the company set up by the Federal Government to design, build and operate Australia's wholesale-only, high-speed broadband network, today announced it had contracted Cisco to provide its data centre equipment.

Following a competitive tender process Cisco has been selected to provide the data centre computing platform that unites computing, network, storage access, and virtualisation into a cohesive system to support NBN Co's business and operational systems. The initial value of the contract is $9.5 million over three years, with the opportunity to scale up as NBN Co's needs increase.

Head of Corporate Services, Mr Kevin Brown, said Cisco is a world leader in the provision of internet-based hardware systems, which also has a significant Australian presence.

"We are pleased to have acquired yet another strategic supplier as we continue to construct the building blocks that underpin the operation of the NBN," Mr Brown said.

"Cisco is recognised as a leader in global networking equipment manufacture and brings a wealth of experience to the project. We look forward to working with their 600-strong team in Australia as we develop the supporting infrastructure for the NBN."

Dylan Morison, Data Centre Portfolio Manager of Cisco Australia and New Zealand, said: "Since our inception more than 25 years ago, Cisco has been connecting people globally and here in Australia to help change the way we work, live, play and learn. On behalf of the Cisco, EMC and VMware coalition, we are excited to be selected by NBNCo to provide the unified data centre platform that will help enable Australian consumers, businesses and key industry sectors to take advantage of the next wave of innovation, collaboration and productivity that can be gained from the NBN."

NBN Co recently announced the selection of Global Switch to house its hardware and software systems. In addition to this data centre in Sydney, NBN Co will announce a second data centre location later in the year.
