What is Broadband?


•Broadband refers to high-speed data transmission in which a single
cable can carry a large amount of data at once. The most common
types of Internet broadband connections are cable modems (which use
the same connection as cable TV) and DSL modems (which use your
existing phone line). Because of its multiple channel capacity,
broadband has started to replace baseband, the single-channel
technology originally used in most computer networks. So now when
you see companies like AT&T and SBC pushing those fancy
"broadband" ads in your face, you'll at least know what they are talking
about.
    •http://www.techterms.com/definition/broadband
New Event Management Company

 The purpose of this research is to find appropriate
  broadband provider for a new marketing who are
  setting up in offices in Swords
 Being a new start-up company the provider must be
  low cost
 A high speed connection is also vital to the company.
 There are 3 staff members who all access the internet
  via a Laptop.
Important Terms

 Some important terms need to be taken into consideration
  when choosing a internet package

 Connection Ratio - how many other people will be sharing
  your connection.

 Download speed - The speed at which information is
  transferred to your computer. This is represented Mbps which
  stands for Megabites per Second

 Upload Speed – The speed at which information is sent from
  you computer.
Types of Broadband

 ASDL - Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line
  transmitting digital information at a high bandwidth on
  existing phone lines to homes and businesses. Unlike regular
  dialup phone service, ADSL provides continously-available
 Satellite - Wireless high-speed Internet service provided by
  satellites.
 Mobile Broadband/ dongle – wireless internet through a
  portable modem sometimes called a dongle.
 Fibre Optic - This is a cable made up of super-thin filaments of
  glass or other transparent materials that can carry beams of
  light.

Most Suitable Plans

 The Event management company have a budget of
  €60 a month for phone/internet.
 Mobile broadband providers would not be suitable
  for the type of work they are doing, downloading and
  uploading large files would not be cost effective on
  these type of broadband providers
 I’ve have had a look at the four best phone/internet
  plans that’s would be suitable for this company
Most Suitable Plans

Provider   Name                   Monthly Cost   Data
                                                 allowance
           12MB Vodafone
Vodafone   Office from Vodafone
                                  €54.99         Unlimited
           broadband.

           eircom Next
eircom     Generation
                                  €29.99 +       10GB
           Broadband Regular      24.99 line
           (8mb)
                                  rental
           Metro Business
DigiWeb    Broadband (8mb)
                                  €49.99         70GB

           Breeze 4mb
WiMax                             €45.27         Unlimited
And the winner is…

 As you can see from the table presented that
  Vodafone offers the best value for a small business in
  Swords.
 Although the connection ratio is 48:1 the value still
  beats the other providers
 For a little extra than DigiWeb and Imagine the
  customer can get a much faster connection (12mb)
  and unlimited data allowance.
 I would strongly recommend that the company go for
  this plan

Most Suitable Plans  The Event management company have a budget of €60 a month for phone/internet.  Mobile broadband providers would not be suitable for the type of work they are doing, downloading and uploading large files would not be cost effective on these type of broadband providers  I’ve have had a look at the four best phone/internet plans that’s would be suitable for this company

And the winner is…  As you can see from the table presented that Vodafone offers the best value for a small business in Swords.  Although the connection ratio is 48:1 the value still beats the other providers  For a little extra than DigiWeb and Imagine the customer can get a much faster connection (12mb) and unlimited data allowance.  I would strongly recommend that the company go for this plan
