No, NBNco provides the modem for FTTC. They call it an NCD. Although
it's just VDSL2, the NCD also provides the power to the device out in

Is that the case for an HFC-based service? I understand NBNCo.
provide a box which just converts the HFC signal to Ethernet, but does
it also provide power to something in the pit?
No it doesn't, the HFC tap in the street is passive.
The HFC NTD is just a cable modem (cable in, ethernet out) as you say.
The customer must have their own router (or be supplied one by their
retailer) like the other connection types.
