  • Appendix B – Glossary of Terms1
    B Appendix B – Glossary of Terms1 Access Seekers A generic term used by NBN Co to refer to customers of the network infrastructure, be they Retail Service Providers (RSPs) or Wholesale Service Providers (WSPs). Asymmetric A technology designed to give basic broadband performance Digital over copper telephone lines, allowing more data to be sent than Subscriber Line with dial-up internet. Speeds range from 256 kbit/s to about 8 (ADSL) Mbit/s, with the higher speeds available only over short, good quality copper lines. Download speeds are higher than upload speeds. ADSL2 A marginally faster version of ADSL. The speed improvement is due to smarter chips being more adept at isolating signals from background noise that accumulates on a copper circuit. ADSL2 speeds reach up to 12 Mbit/s. ADSL2+ An enhancement to ADSL2 that uses a wider frequency range to achieve substantially faster speeds, but only over short distances (less than about 1.5 km). ADSL2+ speeds reach up to around 25 Mbit/s. 1 Except where otherwise noted, this glossary of terms has been compiled from the following source glossaries, plus original content: Alcatel-Lucent, ‘The National Broadband Network: a glossary of terms, 2010’ <http://demo.idg.com.au/arn/arn_home_glossary.pdf> viewed 14 January 2011.

  • Harnessing Cross-Sectoral Infrastructure Synergies
    ICT and Disaster Risk Reduction Division, Staff Working Paper December 2014 HARNESSING CROSS-SECTORAL INFRASTRUCTURE SYNERGIES Executive Summary This Staff working paper explores potential synergies in deploying fiber optic cables for data transmission and other infrastructures, chiefly transport and energy. It provides information on the cost of deploying fibre optics, exploring potential win-win strategies in the co-deployment and cohabitation of fibre and transport infrastructure and drawing lessons from good practices in the Asia- Pacific region and beyond. It contains a set of key policy measures to maximize win-win outcomes, which include synergies with the Asian Highway and Trans-Asian Railway. It also contains an examination of the potential of ICTs in making sustainable transport a transformative building block of sustainable development. Safer, more secure and efficient transport through the emergence of so- called intelligent transport systems is expected to play a key role in the evolution of sustainable development goals. The paper highlights major areas of work for policymakers measures on how to maximise these cross-sectoral synergies.

  • Economic Impactsof Submarine Fiber Optic Cables and Broadband
    Economic Impacts of Submarine Fiber Optic Cables and Broadband Connectivity in South Africa Working Paper 0214363.202.5 November 2020 Prepared by Alan C. O’Connor Benjamin Anderson Charley Lewis Alice Olive Brower Sara E. Lawrence Sponsored by RTI International 3040 E. Cornwallis Road EconomicResearch Impacts Triangle of Submarine Park, NC, Fiber USA Optic Cables and Broadband Connectivity in South Africa | Page 1 Economic Impacts of Submarine Fiber Optic Cables and Broadband Connectivity in South Africa HOW DO SUBSEA CABLES GENERATE ECONOMIC IMPACT? Subsea cables are the global backbone of the Internet, connecting people, businesses, and economies around the world. They connect us to the cloud, deliver streaming video, and increase efficiency and productivity for business. Subsea cables’ importance is all the more apparent during the Covid19 pandemic when many of us have switched to working from home, remote learning, and online gaming and entertainment. We studied the economic impacts from subsea cables that arrived in South Africa in 2009 to understand how they changed the economy. The results show that the economic impact overall was large, and there were more jobs in fiber-connected areas. However, the economic gains were not broad-based, in part because many South Africans cannot afford service. Subsea Consumers Economic Impacts cables arrive Internet speed increases • Jobs • GDP Existing consumers enjoy better speeds, increasing 6.1% their consumption of $ increase in GDP per Price per data digital content, products, † unit decreases
