How Fast Is Fibre Optic Internet?
Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is an old technology that has used an internet connection that works with a copper cable. However, technology has been improving, and we now have a fibre optic connection or fibre broadband which is currently the fastest and most reliable form of internet connectivity available.
We at Coreline Fibre are a company that provides full turnkey telecommunications solutions with services such as planning, supply and implementation. Our business approach is encapsulated in its positioning statement of “Turnkey Fibre Optic Solutions”, with the ability to deliver Turnkey services according to a tested methodology and meet challenges with innovative solutions.
What are the different fibre broadband connections and the speed they run on?
In the United Kingdom, superfast broadband has a speed greater than 30 megabits per second (Mbps), and ultrafast broadband has a speed greater than 100Mbps. The average download speed is 35Mbps.
Fibre connection has a speed that can go up to 66Mbps in a Fiber to the curb/cabinet (FTTC). FTTC is the main technology used for superfast broadband, and it provides a speed of up to 80Mbps. The further away from a cabinet, it will be affecting the connections Mbps. The superfast speed is above 24 Mbps and is available for a cabinet that is approximately 1000m.
The full-fibre broadband is a fibre optic cable running to the premises. A fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) connection can give you much faster average speeds, which runs at 1 gigabit per second (Gbps), equal to 1’000Mbps.
Cable broadband combines fibre optic cables to the street cabinet and co-axial cables for the cabinets to the premises. There is less loss with the co-axial cables, for they experience less signal loss over a long distance. Cable broadband offers an ultrafast broadband speed of 300Mbps, and with the latest technology, it has a speed of up to 1Gbps.
Here we have a different download speed of 100Mbps Fibre connection and 10Mbps ADSL connection in the United Kindom.
Download speed of fibre internet:
| Fibre internet download speed at 10Mbps: | Fibre internet download speed at 100Mbps: |
4-minute song | 1.5s | 0.03s |
5-minute video | 13s | 0.2s |
2-hour HD video | 32m | 25s |
2-hour movie | 10.5m | 8s |
