Is Your Fax Line Prepared for the Roll-Out of the nbn™?
Do fax machines work on the nbn™? Learn what the move from copper to the nbn™ means for your fax line, and how moving your fax online can help you avoid disruption.
Do Fax Machines Work on the nbn™?
If you want to keep your fax services running with the roll-out of the national broadband network (nbn™) across Australia, there are a few things to consider.
Fax services are based on legacy copper technology that transmits fax via the traditional telephone exchange. Once the nbn™ is switched on in your area, the traditional telephone exchange will eventually become redundant, and all communication will be transmitted via your nbn™ service.
The nbn™ can support fax usage on some phone services. However, it's essential to speak to your service provider to make sure they offer the necessary services over the nbn™ network. Learn more about fax compatibility on the nbn™.
