A new box thing in my Telstra pit out front of house

"3DON-20-05" is the nbn designated code for this particular area.

DPU - Distribution Point Unit

O28 - Distribution Pair

P2 - Pillar the distribution Pair is fed from

This P2 O28 is so the lineys know what pair they're working on in case they need to do any work (either nbn/Telstra etc) before or during the FTTC install for this property.

The DPU has been installed, but there's no fibre yet. Eventually there should be a green fibre connected to it- and this box acts like a mini DSLAM or node if you will for you and a couple other neighbours. The phone line to your house gets connected to this DPU, then the magic happens turnbull intensifies
