THE TECH BEHIND RFC
HOW WE COMPARE...
At Rural Fibre Co, we’re proud to bring the latest in fibre technology to regional Australia, specifically the under-served areas of Gippsland.
Our network is built on XGSPON (10-Gigabit Symmetrical Passive Optical Network) technology, offering speeds of up to 6 Gbps symmetrical—meaning your upload and download speeds are equally fast.
Unlike traditional copper or wireless connections, fibre uses strands of glass as thin as a human hair to transmit data using light. This cutting-edge technology ensures faster, more reliable, and future-proof connectivity for homes, businesses, and entire communities.
