In telecommunications technology, the term broadband refers to a wide bandwidth data transmission through coaxial cable, twisted pair, optical fiber, or wireless radio signals. Ordinarily, it is used to refer to any high-speed internet access, something that is at least notably faster than traditional dial-up internet access. Much have changed since the introduction of broadband, and in the next few years, internet users can expect even better broadband experiences. The Cord Cutting Trend There is a growing “cord cutting” trend in the broadband service industry wherein cords or cables are being abandoned. It’s similar to what happened with similar services years ago. Consumers have moved away from landline phones to wireless telecommunication services. Many of those who have been subscribing to cable TV have switched to wireless services (those cable services with prominent dishes installed on rooftops).
