With the wide strip in telecommunications with wide strip is a limit which refers to a method of indication what relatively includes or handles frequencies of a range what can be divided into channels or supports of the frequency. With the wide strip is always a relative limit, included/included/understood according to its context. More the bandwidth is broad large, is the load capacity of information.  A broader band will carry the data; a broader band is still required to carry the music without losing the high audiofrequencies required for the realistic healthy reproduction. In date of television by the described normal antenna, it can be able to receive a certain range of the channels; described as the will with wide strip receive more channels. In data communications a modem will broadcast a band widths of 64 kbit/s per seconds, above the same telephone line a bandwidth of several million bits a second can be handled by the ADSL, which is described as with the wide strip (relative with a modem above a telephone line, although much less than can be carried out above a circuit with optical fibres). With the cable with the wide strip there is a chance more increased to maintain a speed with the constant wide strip compared with the services of the ADSL.

With the wide strip in data communications can have the same significance as in top, so that the data transmission above a cable with optical fibres indicated under the name of with the wide strip competed on a telephone of operation of modem with 600 bits a second. But, with the wide strip in data communications is continues used in a more technical direction to concern to the data transmittance where multiple pieces of data are sent simultaneously to the increase the effective rate of transmission, independently of the true flow. In the machiner of network this limit is used for methods where two signals or more share one medium. With wide strip the various forms of the loop of subscribers of the services of DIGITAL (DSL) are with the wide strip in the sense that numerical information is sent to more than one channel and voice above an other channel dividing only one pair of wire. The operation similar of modems at the speeds 600 bit/s larger than to be technically with the wide strip. They obtain higher effective rates of transmission by using the multiple channels with the rate on each channel limited to 600 bauds. For example, 2400 uses of a modem of the channels of bit/s four of 600 bauds (see the baud). It is contrary with a transmission of basddddddband where a type of signal uses the full average bandwidth those such as Ethernet 100BASE-T.
