What is HFC NBN Connection?
NBN Cable (also known as HFC – Hybrid Fiber Coaxial)
nbn Cable is used where existing ‘pay TV’ or cable networks are suitable to bridge the gap between the nearest nbn fiber node and the premises.
An nbn Cable, or nbn HFC, connection starts with a fiber cable that runs to a node in your neighborhood. Once at the node,
nbn HFC uses the existing cables to make a connection to your home.
