OUR INTERNET PLANS

TPG Fibre to the Building (FTTB) is a high speed broadband service delivered using our own fibre optic network that has been installed in many metro apartment buildings across Australia.

Our fibre is run directly into the communications room of the apartment building and from there individual units are connected via internal cabling using a technology called Very-high-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2 (VDSL2).

As there is only a short run of copper (and in some newer buildings fibre goes all the way) from the communications room to each apartment, FTTB can support extremely fast connection speeds.

Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is a method of transmitting data directly over a phone line to your home from the local telephone exchange. There, the lines connect to a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM), which is an interface between your phone line and TPG’s dark fibre network, providing a direct path from the telephone exchanges into the TPG core network.

Connection speed is dependent on the length of the copper telephone lines running from the exchange to your address as well as the condition of the copper, however the majority of TPG customers achieve download speeds in excess of 11Mbps.
