What is Broadband?
Broadband Internet access, often shortened to just broadband, is high data rate
Internet access - typically contrasted with dial-up access over a 56k modem. Broadband
is often called "high-speed" Internet, because it usually has a high
rate of data transmission. In general, any connection to the customer of 256 kbit/s
(0.256 Mbit/s) or greater is more concisely considered broadband Internet.
The standard broadband technologies in most areas are DSL and cable modems.
Newer technologies in use include VDSL and pushing optical fiber connections closer
to the subscriber in both telephone and cable plants. Fiber-optic communication,
while only recently being used in fiber to the premises and fiber to the curb
schemes, has played a crucial role in enabling Broadband Internet access by making
transmission of information over larger distances much more cost-effective than
copper wire technology. In a few areas not served by cable or ADSL, community
organizations have begun to install Wi-Fi networks, and in some cities and towns
local governments are installing municipal Wi-Fi networks. As of 2006, broadband
mobile Internet access has become available at the consumer level in some countries,
using the HSDPA and EV-DO technologies. The newest technology being deployed for
mobile and stationary broadband access is WiMAX.
