Spirit  has announced an unlimited fibre optic plan for all residents in the upmarket residential building. The company says the service will “future proof their building with speeds twice that of the NBN.”

Triptych owner’s corporation chair Larry Howard said that the fibre network Spirit has delivered was critical in providing their residents with the best services available.

“We have one of Melbourne’s best residential buildings and it is appropriate that we provide access to the best services. Spirit has helped us in delivering the best Internet available,” he said. “Our fibre optic install has been configured to allow for in-apartment download speeds of up to 200 Mbps. I believe that makes Triptych Australia’s fastest building.”

Spirit managing director Geoff Neate said that the growth in demand for bandwidth has been brought on by the proliferation of Internet connected devices the average household now uses, such as smart TV’s, phones and tablets simultaneously.

“Using fibre to the basement and a private internal network, we have bypassed the buildings’ copper and created a network of switches that allow the delivery of much faster speeds throughout the building.

"We are now at the forefront of residential Internet, offering customers superior speeds to access and embrace the new world of media and web innovations. It is a residential Internet game-changer.”
