Analysis Poll Week 5

Link to us: http://sn.im/analysiswk5

This analysis poll week 5 shows that amongst 47 total votes, 81% of it chose fiber optic, 11% on cable and 9% on Ethernet. The right answer for the question is actually fiber optic. Fiber optic it is made up of super-thin filaments of glass or other transparent materials that can carry beams of light. Because a fiber-optic cable is light-based, data can be sent through it at the speed of light. Using a laser transmitter that encodes frequency signals into pulses of light, ones and zeros are sent through the cable. The receiving end of the transmission translates the light signals back into data which can be read by a computer. Compare to a cable and Ethernet, their connection is much slower than fiber optic.

Analysis Poll Week 4

Link to us: http://sn.im/analysiswk4




From the poll that we have created for week 4, you can see that both Unifi and Time Broadband are both tied at 50%. While PenangFON is at 0%. That is probably because PenangFon is not that well marketed or advertised. Also because PenangFON offers only fiber optic connection to only businesses. Unifi is definitely more known that the rest and I must say that Unifi is probably the most known high speed broadband service provider in Malaysia. That is because they can market very well and they know how to sell. But Unifi's prices for the amount of speed offered is quite high and that is probably why it was tied with Time Broadband. Now with Time Broadband, they offer up to 50Mbps and I believe is the only service provider in Malaysia to do so. The pricing for Time Broadband's 50Mbps is exactly the same price as Unifi's 10Mbps at RM199 per month. That probably also tells why Time Broadband had a higher vote than expected.

Link to us: http://sn.im/googletestultrafastbroadband

Google plans a test that will provide 50,000 to 500,000 people with fiber-optic broadband internet access with the speed of a gigabit per second soon this year. They said that they are planning to test the ultra high speed broadband in a small number of trial location across the states. The speed they delivered is more than a 100 times faster than what Americans have access today. Their goal is to experiment with new ways to help make internet access better and faster for everyone. They also said that broadband is a major driver of new jobs, businesses and high speed internet access must be  much more widely available. Google suggested trials of gigabit per second Net access in comment to the Federal Communications Commission's National Broadband Plan, but Google then realize that itself could be a catalyst. Google will offer the broadband access "at competitive prices," Kelly said in the video about the project
