Comcast Unleashes New 50/5 Mbps Extreme Internet Service
Comcast today unveiled a new extreme high-speed Internet service in its first DOCSIS 3.0, or wideband, market in the Twin Cities region. For the first time, Comcast is offering residents and businesses one of the fastest broadband services available in the U.S. today: up to 50 Megabits per second (Mbps) downloads and up to 5 Mbps uploads. The new 50 Mbps / 5 Mbps speed tier will be offered at $149.95 per month for residential customers. Comcast Business Class customers can also take advantage of the new 50/5 speed tier for $199.95 per month, which includes business class features and support.
The new speed tier option is a demonstration of Comcasts first deployment of DOCSIS 3.0 (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications) technology, which sets a new standard for delivering high-speed Internet service across fiber-optic cable networks. Comcast expects to deliver even faster speeds of up to 100 Mbps to its customers over the next two years with the capability of delivering higher speeds of 160 Mbps or more in the future.
