IX Broadband vs. Baseband Networks
Another method used to classify networks,
is describing the underlying signaling technology used in moving
data from one network host to another.
In baseband, there is a single
signal traveling on the cable at a time. In broadband,
there are multiple signals on the cable simultaneously, using
a wide band of frequencies.
You can think about broadband
vs. baseband as being a comparison between a 6-lane highway and
2-lane highway for data. Both may have the same speed
limits for individual cars, but the 6-lane highway has the
capacity to carry more cars at a time, than does the 2-lane highway.
Keep in mind that more lanes typically mean more speed, and it is not
a promise.
