About the schedules

The Ready For Service dates set out in the attached Disconnection Schedule (and other dates published by 91海角乱伦 in relation to the disconnection of copper services) are determined based on dates notified to 91海角乱伦 by nbn co under the Definitive Agreements and are subject to change by nbn co at any time. The Forecast Ready For Service dates published in this Disconnection Schedule are therefore made on a 鈥榖est efforts鈥� basis only and provide an indicative view only of the rollout timing and Disconnection Schedule.

91海角乱伦 does not warrant or represent that the dates set out in the Disconnection Schedule are current or free from errors or omission.

Given this, the Disconnection Dates and other dates (particularly where these appear other than in the format dd/mm/yyyy, or which are listed as an 鈥淓xpected鈥� date) on the page are only indicative and should not be relied on as final timelines.


For up-to-date information in relation to the timing of the nbn听rollout, interested parties should contact nbn co directly.

As these schedules will be updated periodically, you should check this page regularly.

Things you need to know
  • Information in respect of nbn Rollout Regions and dates can change over time.
  • This schedule is provided to assist you to manage key dates associated with the Migration Window, concerning Cease Sale, the Order Stability Period and Disconnection. You should use it for these purposes only.
  • You are not permitted to reproduce or republish this schedule for other purposes.

 

  1. An NBN rollout region or suburb (usually referred to as a Servicing Area Module (SAM)) is an area that is passed or intended to be passed by NBN Co鈥檚 Fixed Line Network. There may be a number of separate rollout regions or 鈥淪AMs鈥� within a suburb for reasons of network architecture, specific geographic features, new premises growth etc.

    As a result, the NBN may not be rolled out to an entire suburb at the same time. Similarly, an NBN rollout region may cross the boundaries of adjoining suburbs.
    • Multiple Premises Sites (MPS) contain the string 鈥淢PS鈥�. The term MPS refers to any development of two or more premises (also known as living units, premises or dwellings) that are joined by a common wall or property boundary and are generally managed by a Body Corporate. Examples of an MPS include apartments, town houses, retirement villages, groups of strata title units and the like. In addition to living units, an MPS can also include retail and commercial premises. A multi-dwelling unit (MDU) is a category of MPS.
    • Fibre-to-the-Basement (FTTB) contain the string 鈥淔TB鈥�. A fibre is deployed to a network terminating device in a MDU and existing in-building wiring is used to deliver NBN services to the Premises in that MDU.
    • NBN Co acquired TransACT fibre (FTTP) network in Canberra. These contain the string 鈥淭RANSACT鈥�.
  2. The NBN rollout region identifier relates to each SAM. This identifier distinguishes between different NBN rollout regions located within a particular Customer Service Area. For example, your customer may live in the listed Customer Service Area but may not be in the specific NBN rollout region or SAM that is declared 鈥淩eady for Service鈥� on a particular date. Alternately, if your customer is in a SAM that is declared 鈥淩eady for Service鈥� and a change to technology occurs for their Premises then the NBN rollout region identifier for this Premises will not change.

    For further details on rollout regions and whether a premises is ready for connection to the NBN, please visit .
  3. The Expected Ready for Service date /Disconnection Commencement Date is the date when NBN Co expects the NBN to pass at least 90% of homes and businesses within the relevant NBN rollout region or SAM. For areas where the rollout of the NBN commenced before 7 March 2012 or networks acquired by NBN Co, services can be connected to the NBN prior to the Ready For Service Date. Areas where the rollout of the NBN commenced on or after 7 March 2012 services (other than trial or test services) can only be connected to the NBN after the Ready For Service Date. The Actual NBN Ready For Service date/DCD is the date on which the NBN Co migration window commences.
  4. We may apply an Order Stability Period immediately prior to and after the Disconnection Date. Currently this period is set to commence 5 Business Days after the Disconnection Date and continues until Managed Disconnection is completed, but we may choose to vary this in consultation with industry or may choose not to apply it at all. Further details will be provided as the NBN rollout progresses. During the Order Stability Period, 91海角乱伦 will no longer accept most variations to existing services over copper. 4.

  5. NBN Co can revise the Fixed Line Footprint to include one or more premises within a new 鈥淚nfill Region鈥�. Infill Regions in the NBN rollout schedule contain the string 鈥淚NF鈥� within the NBN rollout region identifier. The string 鈥淪CR鈥� within the NBN rollout region identifier refers to Service Continuity Regions created by NBN Co for premises that were not NBN serviceable 6 months prior to the original Disconnection Date for the relevant rollout region. A new Disconnection Date has been assigned to these premises, which allows for a typical 12 month migration window. Please make sure you check the Disconnection Date set out in the NBN rollout schedule for these premises.
