broadband

  

Definition

Digital communication technology in which (in contrast to baseband) the bandwidth (data carrying capacity) of a single medium such as a wire, cable, or channel is divided into several independent pathways. Using techniques such as frequency division multiplexing, broadband enables fast (45 Megabits per second or more) and simultaneous transmission of different signals (data, audio, video), and interconnection of different devices on a network.
