SATELLITE - S

Satellite (S)
The Sky Muster™ satellite service delivers the nbn™ broadband access network to homes and businesses in regional and remote Australia, via two state-of-the-art satellites. So, people across mainland Australia and Tasmania, and remote islands such as Norfolk Island, Christmas Island, Lord Howe Island and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands can now enjoy nbn™ powered plans through Sky Muster™ satellite providers. As well as the roof satellite dish installed on the home or business, Sky Muster™ satellite connections also require an nbn™ supplied modem to be installed at the point where the cable from the satellite dish enters the premises. Maximum speeds are 25/5 mbit. Satellite dish is installed on to your roof which points towards the sky. The dish has a network cable running down to an nbn connection box which is installed inside your residence. You will connect your wifi router to the nbn connection box. Satellite signals are effected by distance so there is high latency. Providers also have much lower data limits.
