AT&T AirGig scheme was introduced: where there are wires, a Gigabit network-AT&T-IT information

IT information news on September 21, United States telecommunications company AT&T recently announced a AirGig network coverage plans, the project will make use of wire facilities almost everywhere to provide high-speed Internet service.

Advantages of using wires and equipment service network carriers it is obvious that operator does not require large-scale construction of network base station, which greatly saves costs and time. AT&T said in the plan, this Internet service will have the advantage of stable, fast and affordable, so most people will be able to enjoy the convenience of new technology.

However, the technique is still at the lab testing phase, to the actual applications will take some time. AirGig mainly used the advanced technology? Technical details of AT&T has not yet been released, and people in the industry believe that Poles will be installed in the future of wireless communications equipment, and wires in the transfer of power at the same time, will also serve as transmission channel of the network signal.

This technique is suitable for poor network signal, such as rural and suburban areas, likely landed in the future United States than elsewhere.

AirGig: means air Gigabit network.

利用电线设备服务网络载体的优点显而易见，运营商无需大规模建设网络基站，这大大节约了成本和时间。AT&T在计划中表示，这项网络服务将具备稳定、快速和价格适中的优点，这样绝大部分人都能够享受新技术带来的便利。

不过，相关的技术目前仍处实验室测试阶段， 到实际大规模应用还需要一段时间。那么AirGig主要采用了哪些先进技术呢？AT&T暂未公布相关的技术细节，而有业界人士认为，未来电线杆上将安装无线通讯设备，而电线在传输电力的同时，也将作为网络信号的传输通道。

该技术比较适合乡村和郊区等一些网络信号较差的地方，未来还有可能登陆美国之外的其他地区。
