Broadband is also commonly known as high-speed Internet, because the increased bandwidth effectively reduces the time required for transmission of data; this term is something of a misnomer, however, since the actual transmission speed is essentially the same. An Internet access line can be compared to a water pipe: modem access over a telephone line is a small pipe with relatively low water capacity, while broadband access is a larger pipe with a comparatively larger water capacity. The water, or data, travels at roughly the same speed through either pipe, but the larger pipe can move more water, or data, in a given time period.
