 INTRODUCTION

Broadband is often called high-speed Internet, because it usually has a

high rate of data. In general, any connection to the customer of 256 kbit/s
(0.256 Mbit/s) or more is considered broadband Internet.

Broadband can transmit a wide range of signals, including audio and

video. Broadband networks are especially useful in the Networked World,
as they can carry many signals at once, resulting in faster data
transmission.

It made it easier to send and receive complex audio and video files.
HISTORY & EVOLUTION
 The history of broadband technology actually started in the 1960's.

 Broadband was first introduced in radio signalling but became popularized in 1996 when
“Media One” used it as part of a marketing campaign to advertise their high speed access.

 In early days internet connection was made via telephone dial-up, painfully slow
connection speeds of 56k were common.

 Rogers Communications was the first North American company to offer

household cable modem service.

Broadband
 Continued…
 Broadband was a breath of fresh air for the Internet in the new millennium.
 The technology has continued to advance allowing users to enjoy both uninterrupted telephone
usage and high-speed connections.

 New broadband technology continues to emerge:

3G broadband development has brought reliable mobile connections, while new cable systems
promise amazing connection speeds approaching 200Mb.

Working principle:
 ADSL uses two pieces of equipment, one on the customer end and one at
the Internet service provider, telephone company or other provider of DSL
services. At the customer's location there is a DSL transceiver, which may
also provide other services.
 The DSL service provider has a DSL Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) to
receive customer connections.
 A DSLAM takes connections from many customers and aggregates them
onto a single, high-capacity connection to the Internet. 
 BRAS is the first intelligent device in the whole chain. It terminates the
customer session, authenticates, allots IP addresses and keeps track of user
session for billing .
Types of broadband connection:

 Digital Subscriber Line(DSL):

A) Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) 
B) Symmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL) 
 Cable Modem
 Fiber
 Wireless

 Satellite
 ADVANTAGES
 Rapid loading of web pages and e-mail and equally fast downloading of
files, programs, and computer updates.

 provide wide range of educational, cultural, and recreational opportunities

and resources.

 Used in telehealth and telemedicine to remote diagnosis, treatment,

monitoring, and consultations with specialists.

 An always-on connection, ready when you are to access the outside world
FINANCIAL IMPLICATION

 Used as catalysts for economic and social

development of a country.
 It can contribute to higher GDP for growth rates,
provide for a larger & more qualified labour force
and increased working efficiency.
 As per the report of World Bank, a 10 % increase
in broadband penetration accounted for 1.38
percentage increase in per capita GDP growth in
developing economies.
 PRESENT SCENARIO
 Itis of concern that India has 10.3 million
Broadband connections in at the end of Dec 2010.
 Adjacent figure shows the broadband penetration
per 100 inhabitants in some developing Asian
countries.
 This clearly shows that India is lagging behind in
terms of broadband penetration.
 Out of 105 Broadband SP’s in India, 20 Service
providers share the 98.9% of total subscriber base.
 Presently apart from ISPs, Unified Access Service
Licensees (UASLs), Cellular Mobile Service
Providers (CMSPs) and Basic Service Operators
(BSOs) are also permitted to provide broadband
access under the existing licensing framework.
 FUTURE ROADMAP OF BROADBAND
In future wireless broadband networks, an open terminal, or
Intelligent Internet Device (IID), will act as a portal.
All the networks become the new Internet.
The richness of the services improves and the coverage
grows to 3 billion.
The NGN Internet will transmit a variety of services and
content from anywhere in the world.
Person to person communication, person to business
communication.
