Baseband Vs Broadband
Baseband
Digital signals are used
Frequency division multiplexing is not possible
Baseband is bi-directional transmission
Short distance signal travelling
Entire bandwidth of the cable is consumed by a single signal in a baseband transmission
Broadband
Analog signals are used
Transmission of data is unidirectional
Signal travelling distance is long
Frequency division multiplexing is possible
The signals are sent on multiple frequencies and allow all the multiple signals are sent simultaneously in broadband transmission
baseband: baseband signals are of very low frequencies, they are not good for transmitting over large distances because degradation is much more pronounced in low frequency waves, very efficient over short distances and is therefore commonly used in local area network (LAN) communicationnot have to be modulated into an analog signal, so less equipment is needed to communicate between devices.The Ethernet cable that you have going from your modem to your computer or router is a baseband line
Broadband:uses much higher frequencies and therefore is much better for transmitting over long distances. Wide area networks (WAN) use broadband to communicate,broadband is more expensive to implement due to the equipment involved and cost of service. Since broadband travels over cables that are buried underground and are usually owned by another entity, you have to pay to use them
