"While legacy services such as ADSL2+ exist on the Telstra copper network,
speeds will be limited to reduce interference.

In the most recent draft of the Wholesale Broadband Agreement (WBA 2.2)
released Access Seekers for FTTN Business Readiness Testing, nbn has
revealed that speeds will be limited to 12/1 Mbps during the so-called
“Co-existence Period” on the Fibre to the Node network.

During this period, all bandwidth profiles will be restricted to reduce
interference with existing legacy services that run on the Telstra network.
A similar limitation will apply to Fibre to the Basement, however, the
maximum speed will be limited to 25/5 Mbps rather than 12/1 Mbps."
