The current trend is towards broadband, a high information carrying capacity telecommunications infrastructure to deliver information in a more timely way Most of the developments that enable todays broadband technologies have benefited the core, or backbone facilities of networks Modern telecommunications networks consists of broadband trunks, but only limited broadband access to the end user Maxis tries to overcome this shortcoming by offering broadband access to broadband core networks, via the Broadband Multimedia VSAT

IP over Terrestrial
IP traffic is characteristically asymmetrical because more traffic is typically sent in the downstream than the upstream

Typically, the ratio of the downstream traffic is approximately 5 times larger, or even higher for multimedia contents, compare to the upstream traffic When IP traffic is transmitted over an existing terrestrial network, the customer cannot take advantage of the asymmetric characteristic of IP data
