Telecom Data Mining
 

Telecom Data Nugget: Coaxial cable is a method of choice to access high speed Internet with speed over 200 kbps in both directions. For asymmetric access the difference between coaxial cable and ASDL is much smaller. See high-speed lines.

NM - Not meaningful due to small number of lines.
Notes:  Residential and small business advanced services lines are estimated based on data from FCC Form 477.
1  A high-speed line is a connection to an end-user customer that is faster than 200 kbps in at least one direction.  Advanced services lines, which are a subset of high-speed lines, are connections to end-user customers that are faster than 200 kbps in both directions.  The speed of the purchased service varies among end-user customers.  For example, a high-speed service delivered to the end-user customer over other traditional wireline technology, such as DS1 or DS3 service, or over optical fiber to the end user's premises may be much faster than the ADSL or cable modem service purchased by a different, or by the same, end user.  Numbers of lines reported here are not adjusted for the speed of the service delivered over the line or the number of end users able to utilize the lines.
2  The mutually exclusive types of technology are, respectively:  Asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) technologies, which provide speeds in one direction greater than speeds in the other direction; wireline technologies "other" than ADSL, including traditional telephone company high-speed services and symmetric DSL services that provide equivalent functionality; coaxial cable, including the typical hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) architecture of upgraded cable TV systems; optical fiber to the subscriber's premises (e.g., Fiber-to-the-Home, or FTTH); and satellite and terrestrial wireless systems, which use radio spectrum to communicate with a radio transmitter.
