MVNOs sell their own SIMs and plans but run on NBN's network rather than owning one.

About NBN

The National Broadband Network Co. (NBN) in Australia is a significant player in Oceania's telecommunications landscape, operating under Mobile Country Code (MCC) 505, which identifies Australia, and Mobile Network Code (MNC) 68. As a government-owned corporation, NBN Co. is primarily responsible for rolling out high-speed broadband internet across Australia, aiming to bridge the digital divide and provide improved connectivity to both urban and rural areas. While not a traditional mobile network operator distributing SIM cards directly to consumers, its infrastructure plays a critical role in supporting the services offered by various mobile network virtual operators (MVNOs) and traditional telcos throughout the country. NBN Co.'s efforts stand alongside established mobile networks like Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone, all operating within the Australian MCC 505. Unlike these networks that primarily deliver mobile voice and data services directly to end-users, NBN focuses on providing the underlying fixed-line and wireless infrastructure that enables these services. This infrastructure includes fiber optic cables, hybrid fiber-coaxial (HFC) networks, fixed wireless towers, and satellite technology. While not directly comparable in service delivery, NBN's impact on mobile connectivity is undeniable, facilitating faster data speeds and improved network reliability across Australia, benefiting both consumers and businesses alike, with NBN underpinning the backhaul for many mobile base stations across the vast Australian continent.
