At the Cable Show 2011 conference in Chicago, ARRIS has demoed a new technology that delivers 4.5 Gbps download and 575 Mbps upload speeds over a cable connection. The system steals its bandwidth from DOCSIS cable channels, about 128 channels are pilfered for the downstream and 24 for the upstream connection. Despite the advancement, costs will mean that the likelihood of seeing this tech within our household anytime soon is still pretty slim. But lets look on the bright side, this sort of speed will be most welcomed whatever it is we’re trying to stream or download off the internet.
