  2. Introduction

  3. Cable Advantages Disadvantages • Bandwidth Loss During Peak Hours • Not Available in Rural Areas • Hardware Fees • Security Risks • Slower Than Fiber • Widely Available • Ready Connection • Support Heavy Activities • Stable Connection • No Phone Wiring Necessary • Bundle Services • Support High Speed

  4. DSL/Copper Circuits Advantages Disadvantages • Slower Than Cable • Not as Widely Available as Cable • Signal Loss by Distance • Reliability • Uses Telephone Line • Does Not Tie Phone Line • Faster than Dial-Up • Good Security • Vary Cost Per Area

  5. Fiber Advantages Disadvantages • Not Widely Available • High Cost Wiring Installation • Weak Wire • No Changing Location • Special Equipment • High Speed / Data Transfer • Secure • Light Weight • Cost Effective (Wire) • Trans Continental Data Link • Immune To Electro Magnetic Interference • Minimal Data Loss • Reliability

  6. Residential Considerations Choice • AT&T U-verse Max • Download Speed: 12Mb • Upload Speed: 1Mb • Monthly Price: $29.99 • Price per Mb: $2.50 • Parents • 2 Teenagers • 1 Home Computer • 2 Business Laptops • 1 Gaming System • 1 Tablet

  7. Residential Price Table

  8. Business Considerations Choice • AT&T U-Verse Max • Download Speed: 12Mb • Upload Speed: 1.5Mb • Monthly Price: $70 • Price per Mb: $5.83 • New Company • 25 Employees w/ Computer • 5 Extra Computer • All Computers Are Able to Handle The Internet Service

  9. Business Price Table

  10. Why not Cable and Fiber • Why not Cable for residential and Business connectivity? • The cable offerings were more expensive • The speed choices were about the same between DSL/Cable • Why not Fiber for residential connectivity? • No need for a high download/upload speed • Re-wiring cost • Higher monthly bill

  11. Future – Nielsen’s Law • Nielsen’s Law provides us with a metric for determining what connectivity speed is going to look like down the road. • The law states that internet bandwidth can grow at an annual rate of 50%. So a 12Mb download rate could be 18Mb over the course of the year. • Slowly increase because there is an element of infrastructure behind the technology. Streets need to be dug up, cables need to be laid. • Increases in internet bandwidth take more time to reach end users

  12. Conclusion • Cost and Need • Availability • Chose DSL is most cost-effective option for the given size • Future of internet service lies in fiber connectivity • DSL will no longer be acceptable
