As a growing percentage of both business and personal information is stored “in the cloud,” it is becoming more important than ever to ensure fast, reliable access to information. Telephone-service providers have a strong financial incentive to offer packages of services that can compete with those once available only through cable companies. In other words, they want to deliver voice, data, video and Internet connectivity to customers simultaneously and seamlessly. This paper looks at how new G.fast technology makes economical high-speed connectivity possible.
Fiber networks have begun bringing high-speed connectivity to neighborhoods across the country, but for telecom providers to reach into customers’ premises, they need to use the copper wiring they already have in place. Doing so will require G.fast technology, which allows customers to obtain fiber-like access speeds as telecom providers phase in their fiber deployments. Because of the enormous potential for expanding broadband coverage more economically, some industry experts are forecasting that the global market for G.fast chips will grow to $2.9 billion annually.
