Suddenly I’m overwhelmed with an impulsive urge to pack my bags and move to Mont Kiara, because those lucky folks can now enjoy an Internet speed of up to 50Mbps. Time dotcom (TdC) recently introduced the fastest Internet speed available to consumer today, the Time Fibre Broadband that offers speed of up to a whooping 50Mbps. Unlike wireless technology or copper centric or hybrid networks, fibre optics technology can offer a more stable and secure Internet connection and is able to carry more than 1000 times more information than the same sized copper cable.
“We are focused on delivering the first and only pure fibre optic broadband network while others work on packaging services around existing or hybrid infrastructure. Simply put, TIME Fibre Broadband is the answer to the long awaited needs of Malaysian Internet users, providing the highest speed and bandwidth capacity available in Malaysia.” -- Afzal Abdul Rahim, Chief Executive Officer, TIME dotCom Berhad.
With this introduction, let’s hope that we can actually enjoy technology the way it’s meant to be, like watching Full HD videos, streaming high quality or HD videos on YouTube and quick download of all the music that comes with your phone and other music gadgets. This service is currently available in Mont Kiara, with coverage expanding progressively over the next few months in the Klang Valley area. There will also be a value-added service that allows users to Boost the internet speed up to 50Mbps on demand.
