Super fast fiber for Kansas City | Official Google Blog

Since March 2012 Kansas City metropolitan area (Kansas City, MissouriWhenKansas State Kansas City) Launched an experimental service for "Google fiber", but decided to formalize the service, we began accepting applications for advance application from local time on July 26.

The goal that Google is thinking about when providing services is "to create something better for the user's life." On the Internet, it is obvious what users will be delighted with what they offer.

The following three points we have kept in mind when Google provides Google Fiber.

First of all,"Fast" is better than "Slow"That thing. Nobody wants to wait for web site loading or streaming movie buffers. The fact that it is fast on the Internet is an important factor in any case.

next,""Surplus" is better than "shortage"That thing. Currently there are rich content on the line as much as possible, but only those who can use the high speed line can fully enjoy it.

Finally,""Selection" is better than "Can not select"That thing. With multiple conflicting options, the product evolves in a better way for the user by working hard.

In the first place, the average home communication speed in the United States is 5.8 Mbps on average. It is slightly faster compared to 16 years ago when broadband first appeared, but the capabilities and capacity of the equipment surrounding it are doing phenomenal evolution, only the communication speed is not in pace. That's why Google Fiber comes out. Its communication speed is 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps) which is 100 times the conventional broadband.

This movie shows the image very well.

"Dial up" ...


The maximum speed is 56 Kbps. To download the music slowly to wait for a freight train at a railroad crossing ... ....


Anyway it will be kept waiting for a long signal.


Since the bottom is in communication, the upper road is kept waiting.


From such a dial - up, to broadband.


The speed regulation became loose, it became 10 Mbps.


Google's street view car also runs on a road that is much wider than before


The spam trader seems to be caught by the police


It was slower than I was imagining, the drown bridge had gone up and I had no choice but to stop


What is going through is a cargo ship loaded with gigabyte class containers. Because the file size increase is larger than the increase of the line speed, this is ....


Beyond the tunnel from such broadband ... ...


Space that can run like flying through the sky with Bunbune


"Welcome to Google Fiber"


The speed is how much 1000 Mbps


It's so much more comfortable than ever


Three kinds of plans are prepared, and the top plan is a set of high-speed Internet and Google Fiber TV. Google Fiber TV is a cable TV business Google plans to enter, there are more than 200 channels, 8 tuners and 2 TB of storage are set, so you can not miss a program you want to watch There is no service. Nexus 7 comes with a remote control as well. The price is 120 dollars a month (about 9400 yen), there is no initial cost.

The second plan is a high-speed Internet only plan, with a WiFi compatible line terminator and 1 TB cloud storage on Google Drive with a monthly charge of $ 70 (about 5500 yen), there is no initial cost here as well.

The third is a plan that can use 5 Mbps line called "Free Internet". Although it is free of charge for a month here, it costs 300 dollars (about 23,500 yen) as an initial cost.
