business nbn™ Enterprise Ethernet – Speed

The flexibility of our fastest speed wholesale product designed to meet the needs of an enterprise business.

business nbn™ Enterprise Ethernet allows service providers to order symmetrical wholesale bandwidth speeds of 10/10 Mbps up to 1,000/1,000 Mbps (1 Gbps).* This allows the network to scale to the bandwidth requirements of each business.

The traffic can be managed through three different Classes of Service (CoS) allowing business critical applications to get the highest prioritisation, while applications that are less time-critical can be prioritised economically via an alternative traffic class.

Providers can order a number of wholesale speed tiers with symmetrical bandwidth to meet their customers’ needs and requirements.
Bandwidth Profiles
10 Mbps - 100 Mbps 10 Mbps Increments
100 Mbps - 500 Mbps 50 Mbps Increments
500 Mbps - 1000 Mbps* 100 Mbps Increments

The bandwidth at each premises can be managed across three CoS offered by nbn to providers to allow prioritisation of applications across the network.

  • High: CIR only class of service typically used for time sensitive applications (e.g. voice, video conferencing, Citrix).
  • Medium: Supports a CIR/EIR ratio of 1:3. Typically used for less time sensitive applications (e.g. WAN data).
  • Low: EIR only class of service typically used for ‘best efforts’ applications (e.g. internet browsing, email).

CIR = Committed Information Rate
EIR = Excess Information Rate

Regardless of the retail service an end customer purchases, the actual wholesale speeds delivered by the nbn™ business Enterprise Ethernet product will be less than 1000Mbps due to equipment and network limitations. An end customer’s experience, including the speeds actually achieved over the nbn™ broadband access network, depends on the configuration over which services are delivered to their premises, whether they are using the service during the busy periods, and some factors outside of nbn’s control (like their equipment quality, software, chosen broadband plan or how their provider designs its network). If the end customer's service provider has not selected a bandwidth in the highest of three classes of service available for business nbn™ Enterprise Ethernet, the speeds they experience may be affected by contention on the nbn™ access network, particularly in busy periods.
