What is Broadband?
Everyone talks about Broadband but what is it and what benefits are there to your business? In short, it's much faster and more reliable than dial-up connectivity, it's always on and allows for quicker access to and
downloading of data.
Broadband is a transmission medium capable of supporting a wide range of frequencies, typically from audio up to video frequencies. It can carry multiple signals by dividing the total capacity of the medium into multiple,
independent bandwidth channels, where each channel operates only on a specific range of frequencies.
Broadband comes from the words "broad bandwidth" and is used to describe a high-capacity, two-way link between an end user and access network suppliers capable of supporting full-motion, interactive video applications. |
