Starlink Vs. Cable, SpaceX’s Starlink<\/a> internet is making waves in the broadband industry. But is it as fast, reliable, accessible, and pocket friendly as cable? Here’s a breakdown of how Starlink versus cable internet.<\/p>\n\n\n Starlink internet network uses satellite constellations on the low earth orbit (LEO)<\/a> to beam internet signals to a satellite dish. However, Starlink’s satellites are much closer to earth, unlike other internet service providers whose satellites are much closer since they\u2019re in the LEO. Consequently, this proximity makes the service superior to its satellite internet connection counterparts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image of the satellite beam<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n Cable internet uses coaxial cables<\/a> to transmit internet signals from an ISO server to a user’s computer via electric current. These cables are the same ones used for cable TV. Therefore, as these are well established, cable internet is widely available and affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Image of a coaxial cable<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n Here’s a comparison between Starlink and cable broadband services.<\/p>\n\n\n Here’s a breakdown of the internet speeds:<\/p>\n\n\n\nTable of Contents<\/h2>\n
