Default Re: NBN Fibre to the Node (FTTN) - What does it mean to us?

Quote:
OptusNet Cable speed

Technically, the cable supports download speeds of 100 Mbps (top premium speed offer) and upload speeds of 2 Mbps (0.25 megabytes or 250 kilobytes per second).

Note:
Cable networks work by grouping customers into areas known as "nodes". The customers within these nodes share one pipe for all their internet data.*

The base speed for subscribers is 30Mbps (or approx. 3.75 megabytes per second) downstream and 2 Mbps (0.25 megabytes or 250 kilobytes per second) upstream.

Due to the technology and it's implementation, you will experience slower speeds in peak times due to congestion. Further information is available from Optus' website here:
