Expand or Contract What is a Broadband Internet Connection?
The speed and quantity of data that can be sent across a particular line depends on bandwidth capacity. Bandwidth is simply the amount of information that travels across a line. Traditionally, telephone lines have been used to transmit data. Because telephone lines have limited bandwidth capacity, they are often slow and cumbersome when transferring large amounts of information. Broadband, a method of quickly sending and receiving large amounts of information, is a technology that keeps pace with today’s busy lifestyles.
