Gigabit Broadband 

Did you know that with a Gigabit broadband connection, you can;

 

1. Download a 4 minute song (4MB) in 0.03s – WHOOOOOSH!

 

2. Send HUGE chunks of data and files across the Internet QUICKER than you can write data to a USB stick or thumb drive – WAHEY!

 

3. Download data at a rate that is as fast as many computers can save the data to their hard drive – HURRAH!

 

4. Stream — without ANY buffering — AT LEAST FIVE high-definition (HD) videos (1080p) at the same time and you would STILL have enough leftover internet bandwidth to email and surf the web – BOOOOOOM!

 

5. Download an entire HD digital movie (average size is 14 GB) in a little under 2 minutes – SWOOOOOOSH!
