Installing cabling and cable pathways will enable property owners to choose where to place their nbn® connection box and Wi-Fi router, to help improve connectivity and data speeds within the premises.
The planning and placement of your new cabling and cable pathways will vary depending on the nbn technology connecting the property.
Before installation, it's worth checking if you have safety-critical devices such as medical alarms, fire alarms and lift emergency phones that may not work when connected to the nbn network. You should contact your safety device or equipment provider for more information^.
Contact a registered cabler
In most circumstances, registered cablers are required to install new cabling and cable pathways at a home or business. A list of registered cablers can be found at the Australian Registered Cablers website*.

Please note: nbn does not provide accreditation for the companies listed on this website (or other companies who may be capable of providing the services), nor should the inclusion of a link on this website be construed as an endorsement from nbn.
The rollout of the nbn access network will involve new technologies, and some existing devices including many medical alarms, may not be compatible with these at all times. You should contact your equipment provider to find out if your alarm or other equipment will work when connected to the nbn access network and what alternative solutions are available.
