Collectively, the broadband industry often seems to confuse people with jargon and superlatives. You’ll often see terms like "speed" and "fast" used in various combinations to create a plethora of overlapping terms.....ultra-fast broadband...super-fast broadband....high speed broadband. And then there is the all those industry-invented abbreviations....NGA, FTTC, FTTP, 21CN.
