MT Hotham’s Broadband is being upgradeD
Mt Hotham will no longer suffer poor internet connectivity…We are bringing 10Gbps capacity to the mountain! Now you will be able to stay in contact and work remotely while on the slopes.
How is the fibre deployed?
The fibre pit and pipe network is trenching in at a depth of 300-400mm. Should we need to cross a property boundary, we are careful not to leave a mess. We are also bound by the Australian Telecommunications Act to leave a property in the same or better condition as it was when deploying infrastructure.
Why fibre and not satellite?
Fibre is, without question, the best medium for data transmission. The below points are just some of the strengths of fibre-optic data cable.
- Not subject to weather conditions – fog, blizzards, heavy rain, hail, gale-force winds etc
- Unlike radio/satellite dishes, it is not mounted on rooftops and not subject to snowshed which would lead to damage of the building and cause danger
- Will not cause roof leaks as no equipment is mounted on a rooftop
- Capable of TV delivery
- Lowest latency
- Highest reliability
- Higher upload speeds
What data limitations are there?
None. All our plans are unlimited.
I have multiple places I want the fibre, what deal can I get?
Let us know so we can tailor a solution for you. All our business plans have a free 100Mbps private circuit for multiple connections.
Can I have a telephone line?
You sure can. We can supply a standard analogue line from the fibre ONU or provide VoIP phones connected to our advanced Cloud PBX platform.
Can I have it installed and activate it later?
Yes, you can. Fibre installation to a building is covered by our standard building installation fee. A subsequent installation fee to your apartment of $300 may apply afterwards. You are not required to sign up for a service immediately, however should you choose to sign up we will provide free internet on the plan you have chosen until the first of June.
