60 Mbps Internet Service Revealed


The battle for the fastest commercial Internet service rages on, and it looks like Charter Communications is poised to take the heavyweight belt away from Verizon and Comcast. The company has announced their intentions to launch a new 60 Mbps service, the fastest available anywhere for US consumers.

The FiOS fiber-optic service by Verizon tops out at 50 Mbps the same as Comcast's fastest offering. No details have been released yet on price, or when or where the service will first appear. Experts believe that Charter will be using the same Docsis 3.0 technology employed by Comcast to achieve its new service speed, one that more than triples their current top Internet package of 16 Mbps.
