1,200Mbps How fast is the Xfinity 10G Network? The Xfinity 10G Network is capable of speeds up to 1,200Mbps - that's incredibly fast internet. But even faster speeds are coming; Xfinity plans to roll out multigigabit symmetrical speeds to customers in 2023.

"10G is a reference to 10Gbps, or the maximum speed the Xfinity broadband network is capable of," PCWorld notes, adding that 10G is actually slower than 5G.

All our internet plans are powered by the Xfinity 10G Network, so existing customers are already connected with no upgrade required. New Xfinity Internet customers will experience the Xfinity 10G Network automatically when they join Xfinity.

NAD concluded that “10G” as used in the name “Xfinity 10G Network” and “Xfinity 10G” is an express claim. In evaluating this claim, NAD found that Comcast's description of its entire network as “10G” conveys the message that all consumers on the network will receive a significant increase in speed up to 10 Gbps.

The 10G platform can produce faster-than-fiber speeds on current cable systems. Existing 10 Gbps fiber plans will be competing against this new tech.

It's deeply misleading. In fact, Xfinity's 10G network is technically slower than 5G. Peak theoretical throughput on an uncongested 5G network offers up to 20Gbps download and 10Gbps upload. Xfinity caps out at 10Gbps down and up.

Ultra-Low Latency As consumers' lives become even more hyper-connected, Comcast's continued advancement of the Xfinity 10G Network will position it as the clear leader for years to come.

In fact, Xfinity's 10G network is technically slower than 5G. Peak theoretical throughput on an uncongested 5G network offers up to 20Gbps download and 10Gbps upload. Xfinity caps out at 10Gbps down and up. For access to faster upload speeds, Comcast's $30/mo xFi Complete add-on is currently required.

Internet customers want fast and reliable broadband service for their homes and businesses. Comcast promises its “next generation” Xfinity internet service, now branded as a “10G Network,” will deliver both. But “10G” is a meaningless, and possibly misleading, marketing term.

While 10G internet aspires to have speeds up to 10 gigabits per second, the technology is more likely to give users an actual speed of 3–8 Gbps symmetrical (both download and upload) speeds, which is honestly more than almost anyone could use.
