In June 2008, the Commission released a Report and Order (FCC 08-89) and Order on Reconsideration (FCC 08-148), which together implemented significant improvements to the way in which the Commission collects data on these services. 4 As part of these improvements, which were effective for the March 2009 collection of data as of year-end 2008, providers of wired broadband, fixed-wireless broadband, and satellite-based broadband connections report subscriber counts at the Census Tract level rather than the state level, and all filers report their connections in accordance with an increased number of upload and download transmission speed tiers. In conjunction with measures underway pursuant to the Broadband Data Improvement Act and the Recovery Act, 5 the new Form 477 data will provide 1 See §706, Pub.L. 104-104, Title VII, Feb. 8, 1996, 110 Stat. 153, reproduced in the notes under 47 U.S.C. § 157. In this report, we use the term “high-speed” to describe services that provide the subscriber with transmissions at a speed in excess of 200 kilobits per second (kbps) in at least one direction. “Advanced services,” which provide the subscriber with transmission speeds in excess of 200 kbps in each direction, are a subset of high-speed services. 2 Local Competition and Broadband Reporting, CC Docket No. 99-301, Report and Order, 15 FCC Rcd 7717 (2000); Local Telephone Competition and Broadband Reporting, WC Docket No. 04-141, Report and Order, 19 FCC Rcd 22340 (2004). Qualifying entities file FCC Form 477 each year on March 1 (reporting data for the preceding December 31) and September 1 (reporting data for June 30 of the same year). The first data collected were as of December 31, 1999. 3 Because of the inherent mobility of their service, mobile wireless providers reported subscribers by state and the Zip Codes that best represented their broadband-network coverage area. In addition to reporting subscribers by state and Zip Codes with connections in service, incumbent telephone companies and cable system operators reported their DSL or cable modem service availability to the housing units in their service area in the state. 4 Development of Nationwide Broadband Data to Evaluate Reasonable and Timely Deployment of Advanced Services to All Americans, Improvement of Wireless Broadband Subscribership Data, and Development of Data on Interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) Subscribership, WC Docket No. 07-38, Report and Order, 23 FCC Rcd 9691 (2008); Order on Reconsideration, 23 FCC Rcd 9800 (2008). Effective with the filing of data as of December 31, 2008, Form 477 is a Web-based electronic filing system. Information about this system is available at http://www.fcc.gov/form477/. 5 See 47 U.S.C. § 1301 et seq.

Statistics reported here reflect data as of June 30, 2008, and are the last to be based on data collected under the previous Form 477 requirements. 6 Readers can draw the following broad conclusions from the data summarized in this report: • High-speed lines connecting homes and businesses to the Internet at speeds exceeding 200 kbps in at least one direction increased by 10% during the first half of 2008, from 121.1 million lines to 132.8 million lines in service, following a 20% increase, from 101.0 million to 121.2 million lines, during the second half of 2007. For the full twelve-month period ending June 30, 2008, high-speed lines increased by 32% (or 31.8 million lines). See Table 1 and Chart 1. • ADSL lines increased by 0.5 million lines during the first half of 2008, fiber connections increased by 0.5 million lines, and cable modem service increased by 1.7 million lines. For the full twelve-month period ending June 30, 2008, ADSL increased by 2.2 million lines, fiber connections increased by 1.1 million lines, and cable modem service increased by 3.8 million lines. See Table 1. 6 The terms “high-speed connections” and “broadband connections” are synonyms in this report. The reported connections terminate at end user locations and enable the end user to receive information from and/or send information to the Internet at information transfer rates exceeding 200 kbps in at least one direction. “End users” are residential, business, institutional, or government entities who use services for their own purposes and who do not resell such services to other entities. The “facilities-based” provider of a broadband connection is the entity that owns the portion of the physical facility that terminates at the end user location, obtains an unbundled network element (UNE), special access line, or other leased facility that terminates at the end user location and provisions/equips it as broadband, or provisions/equips a broadband wireless channel to the end user location over licensed spectrum or over spectrum that the provider uses on an unlicensed basis. Facilities-based providers report information about connections they provide directly to their own end-user customers and also connections that they provide to Internet Service Providers for resale to end users. Prior to June 2005, providers with fewer than 250 high-speed connections in service in a particular state were not required to report data for that state. Therefore, small providers, many of whom serve rural areas with relatively small populations, were underrepresented in the data. Including these providers resulted in a one-time increase – from 552 in December 2004 to 1,270 in June 2005 – in the number of holding companies and unaffiliated entities reporting information about high-speed connections. See Table 7. High-speed lines reported in voluntary submissions of data prior to June 2005 represented less than 0.05% of total reported high-speed lines. As of June 30, 2005, filers with fewer than 250 lines in a state (including some entities that previously made voluntary submissions) represented about 0.2% of total reported high-speed lines. Statistical summaries of the earlier Form 477 data collections appeared in Deployment of Advanced Telecommunications Capability to All Americans in a Reasonable and Timely Fashion, CC Docket No. 98-146, Second Report, 15 FCC Rcd 20913 (2000) (Second 706 Report), available at www.fcc.gov/broadband/706.html, and in previous releases of the High-Speed Services for Internet Access report, available at www.fcc.gov/wcb/stats. 3 • Of the 132.8 million total high-speed lines, 28.8% were cable modem, 22.6% were ADSL, 0.7% were symmetric DSL (SDSL) or traditional wireline, 1.8% were fiber to the end user premises, and 46.2% used other technologies. 7 See Chart 2. • Lines connecting homes and businesses to the Internet at transmission speeds exceeding 200 kbps in both directions increased from 80.3 million lines to 88.4 million lines during the first half of 2008. For the full twelve-month period ending June 30, 2008, they increased by 18.8 million, from 69.6 million lines to 88.4 million lines. See Table 2 and Chart 3. • Of the 88.4 million lines which were faster than 200 kbps in both directions, 42.8% were cable modem, 29.6% were ADSL, 1.1% were SDSL or traditional wireline, 2.7% were fiber to the end user premises, and 23.9% used other technologies. See Chart 4. • Of the 132.8 million total high-speed lines, 79.1 million were designed to serve primarily residential end users. Cable modem represented 46.7% of these lines while 34.1% were ADSL, 0.1% were SDSL or traditional wireline connections, 2.7% were fiber to the end user premises, and 16.4% used other technologies. See Table 3 and Chart 6. For state-specific data, see Table 13. • Of the 88.4 million lines that were faster than 200 kbps in both directions, 74.5 million lines were designed to serve primarily residential end users. Of these, cable modem represented 49.2% while 31.3% were ADSL, 0.2% were SDSL or traditional wireline, 2.9% were fiber to the end user premises, and 16.5% used other technologies. See Table 4 and Chart 8. • Of the 88.4 million reported high-speed lines that were faster than 200 kbps in both directions as of June 30, 2008, 55.5% were at least 2.5 mbps in the faster direction and 44.5% were slower than 2.5 mbps in the faster direction. See Table 5. • Incumbent LECs or their affiliates reported 97.3% of ADSL connections, 91.8% of fiber-to- the-premises connections, 81.3% of the mobile service subscribers whose wireless device is capable of operating on a high-speed mobile wireless network, and 32.4% of traditional wireline connections. When all technologies are considered, incumbent LECs reported 60.4% of total high-speed connections. See Table 6. • High-speed lines were reported in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. See Table 9 and, for historical data, Tables 10 - 12. 7 Providers are instructed to report a high-speed connection in the (mutually exclusive) technology category that characterizes the last few feet of distribution plant to the subscriber’s premises. In addition to cable modem, ADSL, SDSL, traditional wireline when used for Internet access, and optical carrier (fiber to the end user) connections, reporting entities specify satellite, terrestrial fixed wireless (licensed or unlicensed), terrestrial mobile wireless (licensed or unlicensed), electric power line, or “all other” technology. See additional notes following Chart 10. 4 • As a nationwide average, we estimate that high-speed DSL connections were available to 83% of the households to whom incumbent LECs could provide local telephone service, and that high-speed cable modem service was available to 96% of the households to whom cable system operators could provide cable TV service. See Table 14. • Providers other than providers of terrestrial mobile wireless services listed the Zip Codes in which they had at least one high-speed connection in service to an end user, while terrestrial mobile wireless service providers listed the Zip Codes that best represented their service territories. Combining these data, 100% of 5-digit geographical Zip Codes were represented in the lists filed for June 2008. 8 The most widely reported technologies by this measure were high-speed mobile wireless (with at least some presence reported in 99% of Zip Codes), satellite (in 93% of Zip Codes), ADSL (in 87% of Zip Codes), and cable modem service (in 67% of Zip Codes). ADSL and/or cable modem connections were reported to be present in 91% of Zip Codes. 9 See Tables 15 and 16, and the map that follows Table 16. For state- specific data, see Table 17. • High population density and high median household income each have had a positive association with reports that high-speed subscribers are present. See Tables 18 and 19. As other information from the Commission’s data collection program (FCC Form 477) becomes available, it will be included in future reports on the deployment of advanced telecommunications capability and in publications such as this one. We invite users of this information to provide suggestions for improved data collection and analysis by: • Using the attached customer response form, • E-mailing comments to James.Eisner@fcc.gov or Suzanne.Mendez@fcc.gov, • Calling the Industry Analysis and Technology Division of the Wireline Competition Bureau at (202) 418-0940, or • Participating in any formal proceedings undertaken by the Commission to solicit comments for improvement of FCC Form 477. 8 Lists of Zip Codes with number of service providers as reported in the FCC Form 477 filings are made available at www.fcc.gov/wcb/stats in a format that honors requests for nondisclosure of information the reporting entities assert is competitively sensitive. Form 477 filings of data after June 30, 2008 will not include broadband provider Zip Code lists. The later filings will include broadband information based on census tracts. 9 The 91.4% figure includes Zip Codes with either ADSL subscribers reported, cable modem subscribers reported, or both. In 63.0% of Zip Codes, both ADSL and cable modem subscribers have been reported. In 24.2% of Zip Codes, there are ADSL subscribers reported but no cable modem subscribers, and in 4.2% of Zip Codes there are cable modem subscribers reported but no ADSL subscribers reported. 2003 2008 Jun ADSL 5,101,493 7,675,114 11,398,199 16,316,309 19,515,483 22,583,548 25,412,509 27,792,800 29,449,166 29,963,968 SDSL and Traditional Wireline 1,186,680 1,215,713 1,407,121 898,468 741,904 809,209 889,266 941,685 898,363 939,692 SDSL - - - 411,731 368,782 337,412 344,759 319,991 293,421 274,582 Traditional Wireline - - - 486,737 373,122 471,797 544,507 621,694 604,942 665,110 Cable Modem 9,172,895 13,684,225 18,592,636 24,017,442 26,558,206 29,173,449 31,981,705 34,404,368 36,506,972 38,190,355 Fiber 3 105,991 111,386 130,928 315,651 298,052 547,082 893,995 1,280,994 1,848,565 2,346,328 Satellite and Wireless 220,588 309,006 421,690 965,068 3,812,029 11,873,157 23,343,199 36,560,869 52,514,007 61,368,444 Satellite - - - 376,837 426,928 495,365 571,980 668,803 791,142 869,450 Fixed Wireless - - - 208,695 257,431 361,272 483,470 586,813 706,552 808,375 Mobile Wireless - - - 379,536 3,127,670 11,016,520 22,287,749 35,305,253 51,016,313 59,690,619 Power Line and Other - - - 4,872 4,571 5,208 4,776 5,420 5,274 5,197 Total Lines 15,787,647 22,995,444 31,950,574 42,517,810 50,930,245 64,991,653 82,525,450 100,986,136 121,222,347 132,813,984 Some historical data have been revised back through December 2005.

Lines reported by non-ILEC affiliates of ILECs other than the RBOCs are reported in the column for non-ILEC lines. Notes for Tables 1 - 6 and Charts 1 - 10. Advanced services lines, residential high-speed lines, and residential advanced services lines are estimated based on data reported on FCC Form 477. Therefore, figures may not add to totals due to rounding. 1 In this report, high-speed lines are connections to end-user locations that deliver services at speeds exceeding 200 kbps in at least one direction. Advanced services lines, which are a subset of high-speed lines, are connections that deliver services at speeds exceeding 200 kbps in both directions. In Tables 2 and 4, we enumerate those reported high-speed lines that also qualify as advanced services lines. More detailed information about connection speeds is presented in Table 5. Line counts presented in this report are not adjusted for the number of persons at a single end-user location who have access to, or who use, the Internet-access services that are delivered over the high-speed connection to that location. 2 The mutually exclusive types of technology are, respectively: Asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) technologies, which provide speeds in one direction greater than speeds in the other direction; symmetric digital subscriber line (SDSL) technologies; traditional wireline technologies when used to provide equivalent Internet access functionality, including Ethernet service if delivered to the subscriber's location over copper (as opposed to optical fiber) plant; cable modem, including the typical hybrid fiber-coax (HFC) architecture of upgraded cable TV systems; optical fiber to the subscriber's premises (e.g., Fiber-to-the-Home, or FTTH); satellite and fixed and mobile terrestrial wireless systems, which use radio spectrum to communicate with a radio transmitter; electric power line; and other. 3 Fiber lines included electric power line through December 2004.
