The nbn™ network will become critical for health, education, business development and the overall long-term sustainable growth of the Sunshine Coast region.
Right now on the Sunshine Coast, over 29,000 premises are ready for service, with a further 50,000 currently under construction.
By 2020, every home and business is expected to be able to benefit from the nationwide upgrade to Australia’s broadband infrastructure.
Access to fast broadband is designed to provide a range of benefits for homes and businesses such as improved opportunities to work from home, better access to online education and health tools and more options for on-demand entertainment.*
Whole families will be able to be online at the same time, using multiple devices and all enjoying the same fast speeds. And for businesses, be it e-commerce, sending and receiving files, accessing online services, internet and data security, cloud based sharing or communicating with staff and customers, all aspects will be faster and more efficient with the nbn™ network.
