Broadband in Catawba County
Greatness or Mediocrity
What is the Definition of High Speed Internet Service?
• 1.4 Definitions• High-speed Broadband Internet Access “Internet access with
transmission speeds of at least 128 kilobits per second for residential customers and at least 256 kilobits per second for business customers.”
• Defined by North Carolina Session Law 2000 - 149.
• Since the Session Law did not state whether the rates are symmetrical (up and down rates are the same) or asymmetrical (up and down rates differ) the Technical Committee of the RIAA (the original name of the Authority pre-2004) determined that service providers offering asymmetrical transmission speeds of 128 or 256 kilobits-per-second met the requirements of the Session Law.
How Much Bandwidth is Needed?
• Most studies indicate that America needs at least 100Mb to the Home by 2012.
• European nations are already developing networks at 100Mb to 1 GB and higher.
• Currently there is no known plan for 100Mb or higher to the home in Catawba County.
• E-NC states the goal should be:– “The e-NC Authority and the State declare that, by 2012,
North Carolina will rank as one of the top five states in the United States in both household broadband adoption and average bandwidth used per household.”
Closing Questions
• The Commissioners have stated as a goal:– Continue strategies to create jobs through
educational opportunities to make sure the workforce is trained for tomorrow’s jobs and invest in infrastructure and development of the county’s quality of life. Remain aggressive in recruiting most favored businesses to the area, and developing a multi-jurisdictional business park. Continue implementation of FORESIGHT.
• Do we have the bandwidth to support this?
Closing Questions
• The Economic Development Corporation recently did a presentation titled:– Job/Investment Target Strategy:
Data Storage and IT/High Tech
– Where in Catawba County does infrastructure exists to support this?
– Do we have broadband services in place to the home that workers in a facility like this would demand?
