Verizon Up For The “1-GBpS Challenge”
Link Hoewing, Assistant Vice President of Internet and Technology Issues of Verizon Communications claims that the American broadband and telecommunications company is “ready and willing to offer 1 GBpS connections” to its customers if they demand. Contrary to their initial emphasis on speed, Verizon is now arguing that speed doesn’t really tell the whole story.
“We’ve already demonstrated we can deliver 1Gbps and even 10 Gbps speeds over the same fiber to a home. As consumer demands and needs grow, we can increase our speeds. But offering a high speed connection to the home does not tell the full story when it comes to delivering the best possible and most capable broadband service. A high number of bits-per-second-connection alone isn’t sufficient, because other factors aside from speed affect the quality and capability of a connection,” explains Hoewing.
