hi all

In my common sense, without any technical knowledge, 

I think that the broadcast made by TV cable are not packetised so we cant
measure the bandwidth,

just like traditional telephone connection, but when we move to VoIP then the
voice is packetised and the bandwidth required for a proper VoIP connection is
around 16Kbps.

Istand to be corrected
