Broadband Cable Internet

Broadband cable internet gives you a high speed internet connection using your digital cable TV line. With broadband cable internet you can get more than 1 mbps speed. Like your cable connection, your cable modem connects to your computer using Ethernet Interface. A cable internet connection is always on. That means the cable modem is always connected to the internet. You only need to turn on your computer to get internet access. The speed of cable depends on how many users are on the internet connection at same time. Because cable uses "Shared Bandwidth" technology, an internet connection can be shared among multiple users at home or at the office.

The term broadband cable internet (or simply cable) refers to the delivery of internet service over this infrastructure. The proliferation of cable modems, along with DSL technology, has ushered in the age of broadband internet access in developed countries.

Bandwidth of residential cable modem service typically range from 3 Megabits per second (Mbit/s) up to 15 Mbit/s or more. The upstream bandwidth on residential broadband cable internet modem service usually ranges from 384 Kilobits per second (kbit/s) to 2 Mbit/s or more. There are few attempts to offer different service tiers beyond the traditional 'home' and 'business' designations.

In comparison, DSL tends to offer less speed and more variance between service packages and prices. Service quality is also far more dependent on your location in relation to the telephone company's nearest central office.

    Monthly cable rates generally vary according to service provided.
