Re: Aboo?

said by gilseed:
oh really? whats so 'broad' about 64k? and why do we have the term 'narrowband'?
Well, I suppose there are two different ways to look at it.

I consider it to be broadband because it uses shared transmission media - CATV, which also carries cable TV.

OTOH, there are various definitions of 'narrowband', like less than 28.8k, less than 56k, less than or equal to 64k, voice-grade or lower (how fast is that?), less than a T1 line (!?), and so on.

So I don't know. Matter of opinion, I guess.

edit: Just to clarify, I was thinking broadband vs baseband ... different sort of idea.
