iiNet speaks about benefits of NBN

Internet Service Provider iiNet has recently spoken about the benefits of the NBN, having launched Australia’s first terabyte plan on the National Broadband Network.

It was recently announced by the Australian Internet Service Provider iiNet that it was launching Australia’s first terabyte plan under the National Broadband Network. The company said that this will give all of its NBN Fibre plans a massive boost to speed and data. Michael Malone, the Managing Director of the company, said that this would give consumers in Australia a taste of what the National Broadband Network could deliver, and he spoke about the benefits of the NBN.

Malone stated: “The main advantage of the NBN is speed. You don’t know what it’s like until you actually use a reliable 100M fibre connection in the home. And these speeds are seriously awesome!” He added: “You could download an album from iTunes in under 15 seconds, or grab a whole movie in a little under seven minutes, so we’re also ramping up the amount of data included to make sure customers can really use it.”

He also said: “The NBN is essential infrastructure that will help us keep up with the rest of the world. We’re really pushing copper to its limits with new applications like IPTV, but it won’t be able to deliver the next generation of applications. We’re excited to be part of the initial rollout of the NBN in Tasmania and look forward to connecting more Australian households in coming years.”

He said that the updated fibre plans would be available to new customers from the start of September, and increased 100Mbps speeds would be available free of charge until 30th June next year.
