2. •The following presentation is a look at the broadband
options available to a start-up Small/Medium Enterprise
in theTallaght, Dublin 24 Area.
•Itwill explore a number of broadband connection types
including: Wireless, DSL, Satellite, Mobile and Cable.
•The conclusions/findings are based on a start-up event
co-ordination business with no more than 2 staff at any
one time.
3. ADSL: Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line. This is a DSL line where the upload and download
speeds differ - typically the download speed is faster than the upload speed.
DSL: Digital Subscriber Line. This is a method of transmitting data over standard telephone
lines - in the UK a variant called ADSL is most common for providing broadband access.
Bandwidth: Also known as head-line speed or connection speed. Bandwidth shows how much
your broadband connection can send and receive the data per second. It is measured in bits
per second (bps) or mega bits per second (Mbps)
Dial-up: Dial up or narrow band runs at 56Kbps download speed or less than that. You
cannot use your telephone when you use dial-up. Dial-up connection is not as much stable as
broadband and gets disconnected periodically.
IP address: Internet Protocol (IP) address is a unique number assigned to a PC. There are
two types of IP addresses – static and dynamic. Static IP address is permanent as against
dynamic address which changes each time you connect to the internet.
Kbps: Unit that measures speed on a broadband line. Kilo bits per second or 1000 bits per
second.
Megabits (Mbps): Unit of broadband speed. Megabits per second or 1000 kilo bits per
second.
Router: helps multiple PCs to share a single broadband connection.
Wi-Fi: Wireless Fidelity. Wifi users can access broadband on their smart phones or laptops.
Wi-Max: Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access is a wireless broadband technology
used to transmit data over long distances. An enhanced version of Wi-Fi.
4. •High-speed access to the Internet.
•Download data transfer links equal to/faster than 256 kbit/s.
•Access to high quality Internet Services.
•Transmission of information in a given amount of time (Like
lanes on a motorway with many cars driving at one time).

6. Connection Types: Mobile Broadband
Mobile broadband, also referred to as WWAN (for Wireless Wide Area
Network), is a general term used to describe high-speed Internet access from
mobile providers for portable devices. It refers to the use of GPRS networks
and advanced 3G & HSDPA technologies to provide broadband connection to
the smartphone users and laptop users. Usually slower than ADSL or cable
broadband and the users often depend on the signal strength.Mobile
broadband services can also provide wireless Internet access on your laptop
or netbook using built-in mobile broadband network cards or other portable
network devices, like USB modems (Dongles) or portable Wi-Fi mobile
hotspots.
7. Connection Types: ADSL
ADSL broadband-Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line is the most common
form of broadband used because it uses a standard phone line found in
most premises/homes. By converting your analogue phone line to a digital
(ADSL) line, it can be used to transmit data simultaneously at a high speed.
It enables fast data transmissions over copper wire telephone wires by
utilising the frequencies that are not used by a voice telephone call. A DSL
filter allows a single telephone connection to be used for both ADSL
services (eg: Web browsing) and voice calls at the same time.
8. Connection Types: Wireless
A high speed internet service technology for portable devices such as
laptops and phones that eliminates need for bulky modem cables. The
broadband modem has the ability to receive the service and then transmit
radio waves which gives computers with wireless capabilities, the ability to
pick up signals and use the internet. Wireless broadband must be set up in
a home/office or in an area which has a wireless router, commonly referred
to as a Wi-Fi hotspot
9. Connection Types: Cable
This form of access to the internet uses the infrastructure of cable television
via the unused bandwidth on a particular network. One or more wires or
optical fibres are joined together to make a cable. Coaxial Cable and Fibre
Optic Cable are capable of transmitting speeds in excess of 1gbps You must
live in an area that has this kind of broadband in order to access it. Phone
lines are not needed for this type of connection.
10. Connection Types: Satellite
Satellite broadband is Internet connectivity provided by satellite, rather than dial-
up, ADSL or cable service. Satellite broadband is linked to a dish network
subscriber service and provides speeds similar to other broadband technologies.
The Internet feed is beamed from satellite to a dish installed at the subscriber's
home. Satellite Broadband services are not the most economical method of
Internet access available as far as pricing and accessibility is concerned, yet it
can reach locations where most other forms of Broadband cannot (including
remote, rural & marine environments). Onwave partnered with tooway provides
Satellite Broadband to anywhere in Ireland
