Rep Power: 1  |  Railtel to offer internet service -2mbps to 32mbps Railtel, a public sector organisation under the Railways taking care of the transport behemoths telecommunication aspects, is now planning to exploit its vast reach by providing high speed broadband connectivity. The venture will be initiated in Karnataka, at Bellary, Tumkur and a small pocket in Whitefield before being extended across the country. It is expected to begin within two months. Christened “Railwire”, the initiative’s aim is to provide an application driven network with high speed access to the internet at an affordable cost. Given the low PC penetration, Railtel also plans to manufacture “Thin client PCs”, ranging between Rs 4,000 and Rs 5,000, in association with a partner. UNLIMITED plans iRW002 256 Kbps Rs.320 iRW004 512 Kbps Rs.620 iRW006 1 Mbps Rs.920 iRW008 2 Mbps Rs.1220 iRW010 4 Mbps Rs.2120 iRW012 8 Mbps Rs.3620 iRW014 16 Mbps Rs.6920 iRW016 32 Mbps Rs.13520 SOURCE: Railwire - Home Port speeds are on 1:4 contention ratio Contention ratio is the ratio in which no. of users content for bandwidth on the same port. In short, 4 people will be using the same port/card at the DSLAM in the exchange. So, if the port/card is 4Mbps, then it's contented between 4 users.It means that you will get anywhere between 25% to 100% of the mentioned speed. |
