For high-speed Internet access, see Internet access. In telecommunications, broadband is a wide bandwidth data transmission with an ability to simultaneously transport multiple signals and traffic types. The medium can be coaxial cable, optical fiber, radio or twisted pair.
In general, any Internet connection of 256 kbps or more is considered broadband Internet. Unlike dial-up modems that are generally only capable of a maximum bitrate of 56 kbps and require the full use of a telephone line, broadband technology supplies at least double the speed and does not disrupt telephone use. This is why broadband Internet is a much more popular choice amongst Internet users.
