Speedtest. Speedtest.net, also known as Speedtest by Ookla, is a web service that provides free analysis of Internet access performance metrics, such as connection data rate and latency. It is the flagship product of Ookla, a web testing and network diagnostics company founded in 2006, and based in Seattle, Washington, United States. [5] [6]
As of March 2020, Ookla reports the average download speed for fixed broadband as 110.72 Mbit/s and the average upload speed as 70.32 Mbit/s (ranked 23rd in the world). As of Q1 2017, Akamai reports an average peak download speed of 70.8 Mbit/s (35th). [6]
As of 2021, Thailand has made significant progress, with an 85% internet penetration rate and according to Ookla's insight in November 2022, Thailand ranked the fourth in the world for the fastest fixed broadband internet, with the median download speed of 205.63 Mbps. This places Thailand right behind Chile, China, and Singapore.
Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of infrared or visible light through an optical fiber. [1] [2] The light is a form of carrier wave that is modulated to carry information. [3]
Multi-mode optical fiber. A stripped multi-mode fiber. Multi-mode optical fiber is a type of optical fiber mostly used for communication over short distances, such as within a building or on a campus. Multi-mode links can be used for data rates up to 800 Gbit/s. Multi-mode fiber has a fairly large core diameter that enables multiple light modes ...
In fiber-optic communication, a single-mode optical fiber ( SMF ), also known as fundamental- or mono-mode, [1] is an optical fiber designed to carry only a single mode of light - the transverse mode. Modes are the possible solutions of the Helmholtz equation for waves, which is obtained by combining Maxwell's equations and the boundary conditions.
An optical fiber, or optical fibre, is a flexible glass or plastic fiber that can transmit light [a] from one end to the other. Such fibers find wide usage in fiber-optic communications, where they permit transmission over longer distances and at higher bandwidths (data transfer rates) than electrical cables.
