Key term definitions
- Backhaul: As a Retail Service Provider (RSP), you can choose to establish a direct relationship with nbn and make a direct connection from your network to nbn services and infrastructure at nbn’s POIs. You may also choose to acquire backhaul services from a wholesale service provider. Backhaul is the transmission service from the nbn Point of Interconnect (POI) to the RSP’s network. RSPs can choose to connect to a few or all of the 121 POIs that are part of the nbn access network. Backhaul networks carry data between the end user’s closest POI and the RSP’s closest network, also known as a Point of Presence (POP).
- Aggregation (Additional Services): Wholesalers can group together nbn products with their own value-added services, and provide them to Downstream Access Seekers (who may not own any network assets). These Downstream Access Seekers can then use those wholesalers’ products (which are built on business nbn products and services) to help deliver internet access and voice solutions to end customers.
