Will you get fibre? The 419 towns and suburbs listed today in the NBN 18 month rollout will predominantly receive either fibre-to-the-node (FTTN), fibre-to-the-basement (FTTB) or wireless technology, NBN Co confirmed. Eight regions in NSW - Blacktown, Campsie, Gosford, Homebush, Liverpool, Long Jetty, Mulgoa, and Tahmoor - will receive FTTP, while a further nine - Campbelltown, Corrimal, Dubbo, Maitland, Mayfield, Nowra-Bombaderry, Penrith, Richmond and Wollongong - will receive a mix of FTTP, fibre-to-the-node and fibre-to-the-basement. In Victoria, seven regions - Ballarat, Footscray, Karingal, Keysborough, Melton, Mount Eliza and Werribee - will receive FTTP. Shepparton and Wallan will receive a combination of FTTP and other broadband technologies. The Queensland suburbs of Acacia Ridge, Aspley, Bundamba, Freshwater, Greenbank, Ipswich, Petrie, parts of Mackay, Nudgee and Townsville will receive FTTP, while Deeragun and Edge Hill will be given a mixture of FTTP, FTTB and FTTN. Six regions in South Australia - Aldinga, Macclesfield, Port Augusta, parts of Port Elliot and Victor Harbor, and parts of Yankalilla - have been designated FTTP zones. St Marys and Gawler will receive FTTP and a mix of technologies. Geraldton will be the only suburb in Western Australia to receive a mixture of FTTP and MTM, while South Perth, Victoria Park, Margaret River, Applecross and Mandurah will enjoy fibre-to-the-premise connections. Hobart, Glenorchy and South Launceston in Tasmania will receive a mixture of FTTP, FTTN and FTTB, while Bellerive and Launceston will receive pure FTTP. In the Northern Territory, Berrimah, Palmerston and Nightcliff will receive FTTP, as will Crace in the ACT, while Civic and Queanbeyan in that territory will receive a mix of technologies. The official switch to the multi-technology mix NBN is still contingent on NBN Co re-signing its definitive agreements with Telstra and Optus
