  2. Measuring network throughput - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measuring_network_throughput

    When talking about circuit bit rates, people will interchangeably use the terms throughput, bandwidth and speed, and refer to a circuit as being a '64 k' circuit, or a '2 meg' circuit — meaning 64 kbit/s or 2 Mbit/s (see also the List of connection bandwidths). However, a '64 k' circuit will not transmit a '64 k' file in one second.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-rate_units

    The ISQ symbols for the bit and byte are bit and B, respectively.In the context of data-rate units, one byte consists of 8 bits, and is synonymous with the unit octet.The abbreviation bps is often used to mean bit/s, so that when a 1 Mbps connection is advertised, it usually means that the maximum achievable bandwidth is 1 Mbit/s (one million bits per second), which is 0.125 MB/s (megabyte per ...

    OC-48 is a network line with transmission speeds of up to 2488.32 Mbit/s (payload: 2405.376 Mbit/s (2.405376 Gbit/s); overhead: 82.944 Mbit/s). With relatively low interface prices, with being faster than OC-3 and OC-12 connections, and even surpassing gigabit Ethernet , OC-48 connections are used [ when? ] as the backbones of many regional ISPs.

  6. Bit rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_rate

    In telecommunications and computing, bit rate (bitrate or as a variable R) is the number of bits that are conveyed or processed per unit of time. [1]The bit rate is expressed in the unit bit per second (symbol: bit/s), often in conjunction with an SI prefix such as kilo (1 kbit/s = 1,000 bit/s), mega (1 Mbit/s = 1,000 kbit/s), giga (1 Gbit/s = 1,000 Mbit/s) or tera (1 Tbit/s = 1,000 Gbit/s). [2]

  7. Audio bit depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_bit_depth

    The number of possible values that an integer bit depth can represent can be calculated by using 2 n, where n is the bit depth. [1] Thus, a 16-bit system has a resolution of 65,536 (2 16) possible values. Integer PCM audio data is typically stored as signed numbers in two's complement format. [2]

    This UART was introduced by Exar Corporation. Exar claims that early versions can run up to 2 Mbit/s, and later versions can run up to 2.25 Mbit/s depending on the date of manufacture. 16C850 16950 128-byte buffers. This UART can handle a maximum standard serial port speed of 921.6 kbit/s if the maximum interrupt latency is 1 millisecond. This ...

    The BRI configuration provides 2 data (bearer) channels at 64 kbit/s each and 1 control (delta) channel at 16 kbit/s. The B channels are used for voice or user data , and the D channel is used for any combination of data, control signaling , and X.25 packet networking. [ 1 ]
