Description topics

Broadband subscribers, total
A broadband connection is a high-quality connection to the Internet, such
as cable, DSL or Glass fibre/LAN. LAN is Local Area Network. The fixed
rented and leased lines with a high transmission rate (the sum of upload
and download capacity) are included. UMTS (Universal Mobile
Telecommunications System; a system offering mobile telecommunication
services) is excluded. The OECD uses the following definition of
'broadband connection': connections to the Internet with a total
transmission rate of at least 256 kbit/s (kilobit per second).

South Korea: from June 2004 to December 2004 a break in the time series
occurred.
DSL
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) is a data communication technology enabling
a high data transmission capacity via copper wire. Generally, a normal
telephone cable is used for this type of connection.
