U.S. authorities will provide the entire country 100-megabit Internet

Head of the (Federal Communications Commission Julius Genachowski took the initiative to provide 100 million homes broadband internet access. As part of the 100 Squared will provide 100 million homes broadband internet access via 100 megabit per second, the site Electronista.
Initiative 100 Squared  was presented Dzhinachovski in the document prepared by FCC. In case of approval of this initiative by the U.S. Congress penetration of broadband Internet in the U.S. will grow from the current 65 to 90 percent.

Dzhinachovski did not provide the timing of the program. This official urged not to be limited to 100 megabytes. He noted that he supports projects such as Google Fiber, which includes in house channels with a bandwidth one gigabit per second.

Program 100 Squared was presented on February 16, the day before the anticipated presentation of the “National Plan for broadband access” (National Broadband Plan). Earlier FCC issued a statement that the presentation of the report it would need another month, writes CNet News. National Broadband Plan should be prepared on the instructions of Congress. It is part of a package of measures to stimulate the U.S. economy, proposed by President Barack Obama.

The cost of deploying new broadband access network throughout the U.S., according to FCC, could reach 350 billion dollars. It is expected that most of these funds will be invested by private companies. The problem the U.S. authorities is to design appropriate programs to encourage investment.
