I have been told we are now hfc cabled when nbn came and installed a new cabling to the main phone inlet to the building.
Diagrams on the nbn page show a utlity box installed outside the unit to a connection box inside the unit. I am sorry. I don't know how else to explan this.
Below is the email I snt a few minutes ago with more details:
Dear tpg community
I need your advice please.
I have been with tpg for many many years for ADSL2+
Our 3 storey 18 unit apartment has just been connected with HFC coaxial cable in the ceiling.
As a member of our body corporate I wanted to issue advice to all unit holders that when nbn come they must not drill or install anything on the common property, such as external walls and staircases. However on reading nbn diagrams it talks about a utility box outside the peoperty and a connection box inside each unit.
That makes me think that they will want to drill in staircases.
Currently our HFC cable installed by nbn is in the ceiling and we have been told by that nbn installer that units can all be wired via the brick cavities in the building.
As such do we still have to have a utlity box outside every individual unit in the staircases or can one utility box be installed for the whole compef of 18 units downstairs in the utility room where the telephone lines come in to the box that sends the cables to each individual uint and the hfc cable to the roof.
Please can you advise me urgently as our building has just become available for nbn.
Thank you so much,
Dr Anthony Wood
