4. WHAT IS GOOGLE FIBER??
Google Fiber is Google's fiber-to-the-premises service in the
United States, providing broadband internet and television to
a small and slowly growing number of locations.
Google Fiber is an Internet and TV service that provides
Internet connectivity that is up to 100x faster than basic
broadband speeds, along with hundreds of HD TV channels.
Google Fiber is gigabit (or 1,000 megabits per second)
Internet, supplied by fiber-optic cables rather than the century-old
copper ones currently providing Internet at speeds of
about 9.8 megabits per second.
5. HOW DOES GOOGLE FIBER WORK?
Google Fiber is powered by a hub-and-spoke cable system. A
fiber ring surrounds the city where the network is located. From
that ring, fibers branch comes inward and connect to fiber huts,
where each strand passes through the devices that receive and
transmit signals between your computer and the Internet. From
there, fibers connect to telecom cabinets, which divide fibers into
small bundles that travel outward to clusters of homes. At that
point, cables pass through neighbourhoods via telephone poles
or underground and, ultimately, a single strand connects to an
individual home for Internet and television connections.
Compared to the crude copper material through which most
broadband signals run, fiber optic cables have minimal
interference as signals travel from transmitter to receiver. Light
signals travel around the “fiber ring” and split down the branches
of fiber lines until reaching your house.
7. COMPONENTS OF THE FIBER NETWORK
Fiber Ring- Fiber ring is the fiber network that comes from the Google
Headquarters surrounding a city for providing the 1st step for connecting the
people with high speed Internet.
Fiber Huts- Fiber Huts are the brain of the fiber network. These huts are the
homes for the thousands of Google fiber. The fibers enter the hut and from there
each strand passes on through the receive and transmit devices to our homes.
Telecom Cabinets- Telecom Cabinets often located near our neighborhood
roads divides fibers into small bundles and are transmitted towards our homes.
Fiber-to-the-home- A fiber cable comes to our home through the telephone or
electric poles or through underground cables providing us the high speed
internet.
10. SPEED TEST
Google Fiber will provide an Internet connection speed of one
gigabit per second (1,000 Mbit/s) for both download and upload
which is roughly 100 times faster access than what most
Americans have. Google Fiber says its service allows for the
download of a full movie in less than two minutes.
In order to utilize gigabit speeds as of 2013, devices would
require support for 1000BaseT and category 5 or greater cabling,
or a 802.11ac compatible Wi-Fi router and wireless adapter.
12. GOOGLE FIBER V/S TODAY’S INTERNET

13. It’s easy to forget how revolutionary high-speed Internet access was in the 1990s.
Not only did broadband kill the screeching sound of dial-up, it also spurred
innovation, helping to create amazing new services as well as new job
opportunities for many thousands of people. But today the Internet is not as fast
as it should be.
Google noted that the average Internet speed in the U.S. is only 5.8 megabits per
second (Mbps),which is a slight uptick in speed first made available by residential
broadband 16 years ago.
At 1000 Mb per second (1Gbps), Google Fiber is 100 times faster than today’s
average Internet, allowing you to get what you want instantaneously. You no
longer have to wait on things buffering; everything will be ready to go when you
are. So whether you are video chatting, uploading family videos, or playing your
favourite online games, all you need to do is click and you’re there.
And the company was telling “Its not just TV. And its not just Internet. Its Google
Fiber.”

17. CONCLUSION
One of the main aims of the seminar is to make others
understand that there are so many new technologies
developed in this world. Let’s check its various needs from
various perspectives.
Student: A student should understand that modern internet
and its speed in the virtual reality. So while they are studying
they should study the various possibilities that because they
are the professionals of tomorrow.
Professionals: Professionals should understand that business
is directly related to world or society. So they should need a
high speed internet connection for their job and their business.
Educate the professionals and the users against internet and
its possibilities.
