			Broadband
What is Broadband?
The term broadband commonly refers to high-speed Internet
access. The FCC defines broadband service as data transmission speeds exceeding
200 kilobits per second (Kbps), or 200,000 bits per second, in at least one
direction: downstream (from the Internet to the user’s computer) or upstream
(from the user’s computer to the Internet).

OVERVIEW OF THE AMERICAN RECOVERY AND REINVESTMENT ACT OF 2009 (RECOVERY ACT)
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) was signed 
into law by President Obama on February 17th, 2009. The FCC is currently working in coordination with the National 
Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to perform the FCC’s 
role under the Recovery Act. Specifically, in conjunction with the Broadband 
Technology Opportunities Program established by the Act, the FCC has been tasked 
with creating a National Broadband Plan by February 17, 2010. The Recovery Act 
states that the National Broadband Plan shall seek to ensure all people of the 
United States have access to broadband capability and shall establish benchmarks 
for meeting that goal.

HOW IS BROADBAND DIFFERENT FROM DIAL-UP SERVICE?
Broadband service provides higher speed of data transmission—Allows more content to
	be carried through the transmission “pipeline.”
	Broadband provides access to the highest quality Internet
	services—streaming media, VoIP (Internet phone), gaming, and interactive
	services. Many of these current and newly developing services require the
	transfer of large amounts of data which may not be technically feasible with
	dial-up service. Therefore, broadband service may be increasingly necessary
	to access the full range of services and opportunities that the Internet can
	offer.
	Broadband is always on—Does not block phone lines and no need to
	reconnect to network after logging off.
	Less delay in transmission of content when using
    broadband.WHY IS BROADBAND IMPORTANT?
Broadband can provide you with the technical capability to access a
wide range of resources, services, and products that can enhance your life in
a variety of ways. These resources, services, and products include, but are not
limited to:
Education, Culture, & Entertainment
	
	Broadband can overcome
	geographical and financial barriers to provide access to a wide range of
	educational, cultural, and recreational opportunities and resources.
	Telehealth & Telemedicine
	Broadband can facilitate provision of
	medical care to unserved and underserved populations through remote
	diagnosis, treatment, monitoring, and consultations with specialists.Economic Development/E-Commerce
	
	Broadband can promote economic
	development and revitalization through electronic commerce (e-commerce) by:

	Creating new jobs and attracting new industries.
		Providing access to regional, national, and worldwide markets.Electronic Government (E-Government)
	
	Electronic government
	    can help streamline people’s interaction with government
	agencies, and provide information about government policies, procedures,
	benefits, and programs.Public Safety and Homeland Security
	
	Broadband can help protect the
	public by facilitating and promoting public safety information and
	procedures, including, but not limited to:
	Early warning/public alert
	systems and disaster preparation programs.
	Remote security monitoring and real time security background checks.
	Backup systems for public safety communications networks.Broadband Communications Services
	
	Broadband provides access to new
	telecommunications technologies such as Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP)
	    allowing voice communication using the Internet.Communications Services for People With Disabilities
	
	Broadband permits
	users of Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS) to use Video Relay Services
	(VRS) to communicate more easily, quickly, and expressively with voice
	telephone users.TYPES OF BROADBAND
CONNECTIONS
Broadband includes several high-speed transmission
technologies such as:
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)
	Cable Modem
	Fiber
	Wireless
	Satellite
	Broadband over Powerlines (BPL)The broadband technology you choose will depend on a number
of factors. These may include whether you are located in an urban or rural area,
how broadband Internet access is packaged with other services (like voice
telephone and home entertainment), price, and availability.
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)
DSL is a wireline transmission technology that transmits
data faster over traditional copper telephone lines already installed to homes
and businesses. DSL-based broadband provides transmission speeds ranging from
several hundred Kbps to millions of bits per second (Mbps). The availability and
speed of your DSL service may depend on the distance from your home or business
to the closest telephone company facility.
The following are types of DSL
transmission technologies:
Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) – used
	primarily by residential customers, such as Internet surfers, who receive a
	lot of data but do not send much. ADSL typically provides faster speed in
	the downstream direction than the upstream direction. ADSL allows faster
	downstream data transmission over the same line used to provide voice
	service, without disrupting regular telephone calls on that line.
	Symmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL) – used
	typically by businesses for services such as video conferencing, which need
	significant bandwidth both upstream and downstream.Faster forms of DSL typically available to businesses
include:
High-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line (HDSL); and
	Very High-data-rate Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL).Cable Modem
Cable modem service enables cable operators to provide
	broadband using the same coaxial cables that deliver pictures and sound to
	your TV set.
	Most cable modems are external devices that have two
	connections, one to the cable wall outlet and the other to a computer. They
	provide transmission speeds of 1.5 Mbps or more.
	Subscribers can access their cable modem service simply
	by turning on their computers without dialing-up an ISP. You can still watch
	cable TV while using it. Transmission speeds vary depending on the type of
	cable modem, cable network, and traffic load. Speeds are comparable to DSL.Fiber
Fiber, or fiber optic, is a newer technology available
	for providing broadband. Fiber optic technology converts electrical signals
	carrying data to light and sends the light through transparent glass fibers
	about the diameter of a human hair. Fiber transmits data at speeds far
	exceeding current DSL or cable modem speeds, typically by tens or even
	hundreds of Mbps.
	The actual speed you experience will vary depending upon
	a variety of factors, such as how close to your computer the service
	provider brings the fiber, and how the service provider configures the
	service, including the amount of bandwidth used. The same fiber providing
	your broadband can also simultaneously deliver voice (VoIP) and video
	services, including video-on-demand.
	Telecommunications providers (mostly telephone
	companies) are offering fiber broadband in limited areas and have announced
	plans to expand their fiber networks and offer bundled voice, Internet
	access, and video services.
	Variations of the technology run the fiber all the way
	to the customer’s home or business, to the curb outside, or to a location
	somewhere between the provider’s facilities and the customer.Wireless
Wireless broadband connects a home or business to the
	Internet using a radio link between the customer’s location and the service
	provider’s facility. Wireless broadband can be mobile or fixed.
	Wireless technologies using longer range directional
	equipment provide broadband service in remote or sparsely populated areas
	where DSL or cable modem service would be costly to provide. Speeds are
	generally comparable to DSL and cable modem. An external antenna is usually
	required.
	Fixed wireless broadband service is becoming more and
	more widely available at airports, city parks, bookstores, and other public
	locations called “hotspots.” Hotspots generally use a short-range technology
	that provides speeds up to 54 Mbps. Wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) technology is
	also often used in conjunction with DSL or cable modem service to connect
	devices within a home or business to the Internet via a broadband
	connection.
	Mobile wireless broadband services are also becoming
	available from mobile telephone service providers and others. These services
	are generally appropriate for highly-mobile customers and require a special
	PC card with a built in antenna that plugs into a user’s laptop computer.
	Generally, they provide lower speeds, in the range of several hundred Kbps.Satellite
Just as satellites orbiting the earth provide necessary
	links for telephone and television service, they can also provide links for
	broadband. Satellite broadband is another form of wireless broadband, also
	useful for serving remote or sparsely populated areas.
	Downstream and upstream speeds for satellite broadband
	depend on several factors, including the provider and service package
	purchased, the consumer’s line of sight to the orbiting satellite, and the
	weather. Typically a consumer can expect to receive (download) at a speed of
	about 500 Kbps and send (upload) at a speed of about 80 Kbps. These speeds
	may be slower than DSL and cable modem, but download speed is about 10 times
	faster than download speed with dial-up Internet access. Service can be
	disrupted in extreme weather conditions.Broadband over Powerline (BPL)
BPL is the delivery of broadband over the existing low
	and medium voltage electric power distribution network. BPL speeds are
	comparable to DSL and cable modem speeds. BPL can be provided to homes using
	existing electrical connections and outlets.
	BPL is an emerging technology, currently available in
	very limited areas. It has significant potential because power lines are
	installed virtually everywhere, alleviating the need to build new broadband
	facilities to every customer.BROADBAND IN RURAL AREAS
Because of relatively low population density, topographical
barriers, and greater geographical distances, broadband service may be more
difficult to obtain in some rural areas. In attempting to address these
challenges, some rural communities have found it helpful to develop a strategic
plan for broadband deployment that includes creating a comprehensive business
proposal to broadband providers. Such a plan, for example, could demonstrate to
broadband providers that deployment is a sound business decision that would
benefit both the providers and the community. This strategic planning process
may include, but is not limited to, the following elements and strategies:
Educating the community about the potential benefits of
	broadband service.
	Creating partnerships among community organizations and
	institutions that might benefit from broadband deployment.
	Systematic assessment and prioritization of the
	community’s needs for broadband service.
	Aggregating (consolidating) demand within the community
	to make service profitable for broadband providers. Participants may
	include, but are not limited to, individual consumers, businesses,
	educational institutions, health care facilities, and government agencies.
	Identifying an anchor tenant with adequate demand to
	spur infrastructure investment in broadband.FCC FACTSHEETS
