Why Upgrade from Copper VDSL to Fibre?
Why Upgrade from Copper VDSL to Fibre?
Myth: Copper VDSL is sufficient for modern internet needs.
Truth: Let’s face it; in WA, sometimes we joke that WA stands for "Wait Awhile," especially when it comes to internet speeds! Upgrading your internet from copper VDSL to fibre optics provides significant advantages, particularly higher speeds, increased reliability, and enhanced bandwidth. Fibre connections offer vastly superior speeds, transforming everyday activities like streaming Netflix during stormy winter days in Perth or online gaming during the hot summer evenings in Broome, into smooth, lag-free experiences. Additionally, fibre optic cables transmit data through pulses of light, unaffected by electrical interference or harsh WA weather conditions, unlike the old copper lines. This ensures a stable connection even during WA's famously unpredictable weather. Fibre optics also handle greater bandwidth, perfect for multiple devices and heavy online tasks, ensuring your family enjoys seamless internet without slowdowns.
Historical Fact: Australia's first fibre optic link was laid between Sydney and Melbourne in 1987, significantly boosting communication speed across the country.
