The fibre optic broadband network will cover around 200,000 premises in all. <\/p>\n<p>NBN Co also announced today that it had begun plans to deliver its fixed wireless broadband to around  32,000 premises on the island state not covered by fibre. <\/p>\n<p>Construction in the new sites was carried out by Lend Lease Infrastructure Services working with NBN Co agent Aurora.To get connected to the network, homes in the new rollout locations need to contact one of the internet service providers offering NBN retail packages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Triabunna, Sorrell, and Kingston Beach now connected to high-speed broadband service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":41,"featured_media":93802,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28,25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-88056","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archive","category-services","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Its Live!
