We saw a glimpse of how 10G broadband could transform home life. Here's how.
In a small, one-story house in Ames, central Iowa officials got a look at a futuristic living space powered by what Mediacom calls "the next generation of broadband technology." The company debuted its "smart home," touting it as the first field trial in the country for a new 10G platform and showing more than 70 smart devices including many "bandwidth intensive" ones at work at once. The platform allows a ramp-up to 10 gigabits per second from the 1 gigabit speeds available today, Mediacom said.
