Broadband Connectivity
Broadband Connectivity refers to the always-on and high-speed access to the internet through various types of technologies. It provides users with a fast and reliable connection that enables the transmission of large amounts of data, supporting activities such as streaming video, online gaming, and video conferencing. Broadband can be delivered via several mediums, including fiber-optic cables, coaxial cables, DSL (Digital Subscriber Line), satellite, and wireless technologies. The term encompasses a range of internet speeds, generally characterized by download speeds of at least 25 Mbps (megabits per second), which facilitate uninterrupted online experiences and efficient data transfer. Broadening access to broadband connectivity is critical for economic development, education, and social inclusion, as it allows individuals, businesses, and institutions to participate in the digital economy.
