SINGAPORE: From August, homeowners will get a guide on how they can set up their homes to tap on the ultra high broadband speed delivered over the Next Generation Nationwide Broadband Network (Next Gen NBN).
The guide is developed by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA). It will offer a summary and comparison of the commonly-used options to bringing fibre broadband access to different parts of the house via the Termination Point.
The guide will be made available to the public at IDA's office, the Infocomm Experience Centre (iExperience) and online at IDA's website www.ida.gov.sg.
Owners of new flats will receive their copies through the Housing and Development Board.
Acting Minister for Community Development, Youths and Sports, Major-General (NS) Chan Chun Sing, said the guide will complement the suite of other fibre installation-related references published by OpenNet and the retail service providers.
"After linking our homes up with the Next Gen NBN, I know that many of us may not know what to do next. Help is at hand as IDA will be distributing a guide to help homeowners decide how they can connect devices in different parts of the house to the fibre broadband," said Major-General (NS) Chan, who is also the Minister of State for Information, Communications and the Arts.
He was speaking at the prize award ceremony for the second instalment of the "Most Fibred-Up Constituency Contest" on Saturday. Yew Tee constituency was named the winner while Keat Hong constituency was the runner-up.
