Broadband Overview

The Government's aim is to ensure the UK has "the most extensive and competitive Broadband market among the G7 nations by 2005" and sees Broadband as the key to successfully building the new digital e-economy.

'Broadband' is the common term for a high bandwidth Internet connection. A Broadband service can be capable of transmitting data at up to 40 times* the speed of a standard modem. Equally importantly, it is always 'on' - you don't need to dial up every time you want to 'log on'. Just sit down at your computer and the Internet is there - like electricity or tap water!

The key benefits of Broadband are:

· 'Always On' Internet connection, not additional call charges
· Greater speed of connection
· IP data networking

There are two principle ways to deliver Broadband:

ADSL

ADSL stands for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. It moves data more quickly from exchange to customer than from customer to exchange. So it is particularly suitable for applications where customers expect to receive more data than they transmit. ADSL operates over a normal telephone line and the signal is carried by two ADSL modems - one in the end user's premises and one in the local exchange.

SDSL

SDSL LLU is where the last mile of copper is unbundled from the BT exchange. It is then changed over to a higher quality line that enables faster up stream data. These are indicated in the table below. However, these services are only available in selected exchanges. Please contact us for clarification.

ADSL requires a normal analogue BT (or Telinet) telephone line to deliver the service
