NBN Co has revealed a potential plan to replace its much-maligned connectivity virtual circuit (CVC) pricing with ‘flat’ wholesale prices. The network provider on Monday released a paper outlining its proposals to replace CVC with Access Virtual Circuit (AVC)-only pricing on some or all of its fixed-line and fixed wireless speed tiers. The first option involves flat rate AVC-only pricing on all speed tiers, while the second would only remove CVC for wholesale speed tiers of 100 Mbps and above. The last will involve a 25 percent reduction in the CVC overage rate from $8 to $6 per Mbps. A report from CRN sister site iTnews showed the first proposal would get an immediate $5 to $20 per month price hike for all tiers, plus yearly indexed increases. The second proposal would include a $5 per month increase for 50Mbps while 100Mbps and above will get the $5 to $20 per month increase and yearly indexed increases.
