Earlier this year NBN CEO Bill Morrow told a Senate Committee said the company would be forced to roll out fibre directly to apartments to bypass fibre to the building (FTTB) equipment that companies like TPG had already installed, as connecting FTTB equipment from two different providers was “well known” to cause interference problems.
I looked in the Senate Committee report, but couldn’t find where Bill Morrow made the “well known to cause signal interference” comment. I believe that particular comment came from “well-known blogger and the creator of the
independent rollout tracker myNBN.info site, jxeeno”.
As an owner in a small block, it’s really hard to know which way to jump – do we accept the fibre to the basement offer that’s on the table now, or wait for an undetermined amount of time for NBN? And when NBN arrives, will they be connecting fibre to our (small) block, or do we get fibre to the node?
