What is Hybrid Fibre Coax (HFC)?

HFC utilises a coaxial network to provide an internet connection. Intelligent Home will install a conduit from the connection location outside the house to a designated point inside that will be labelled “Fibre Conduit”. An NBN technician will then install a coaxial cable from the street to the outside of the home and then from the connection location through the installed conduit to the designated point. The NBN technician will install a black box called a Network Termination Device (see below). You can connect your service provider modem to the Network Termination Device and connect to the internet.
