In order to provide a better service for professionals who work with large amounts of data in the cloud, the Google Fiber internet service has developed a super-fast internet. Its speed is an absurd 5 Gbps (Gigabits per second), that is, we are talking about a frightening 5 thousand Mbps per second.
Contemplated cities
Initially, it is only available in the United States. The cities that received the product for the first time were:
- All 243 cities in the state of Utah;
- Kansas City (Missouri);
- West Des Moines (Iowa).
cost and speed
While the speed is indeed very high, the value of the product seems to make up for it. To access this service, you will need to spend US$ 125 per month, around R$ 645.00 (current quotation).
As previously mentioned, the internet operates at 5Gbps. Just by way of comparison, the average mega of internet in the Brazil corresponds to 113.55 Mbps. That is, Google Fiber has 4886.45 Mbps more, showing an increase of about incredible 4,303%.
Bearing in mind that there are already providers that operate at 1Gbps and 2Gbps – costing US$ 70 and US$ 100 per month, respectively – it is possible to see that Google Fiber's objective is always to go further. Now that the 5Gbps barrier has been overcome, the goal of the internet service is to launch the 8Gbps one, which is already in the testing phase.
