BANDWIDTH
Data transfer rates for Internet connections
and the corresponding total daily capacity [traffic].
Bits `n Bytes
Data transfer
is expressed in bits per second.
Kb (Kilobit)=
1,000 bits
Mb (Megabit)=
1,000,000 bits
Gb (Gigabit)=
1,000.000,000 bits
Tb (Terabit)=
1,000,000,000,000 bits
Pb (Petabit)=
1,000,000,000,000,000 bits
Eb (Exabit)=
1,000,000,000,000,000,000 bits
Zb (Zettabit)=
1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bits
Yb (Yottabit)=
1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bits
File and memory sizes
are expressed in Bytes.
Byte = 8 bits
KB (KiloByte)= 1024 Bytes
MB (MegaByte)= 1.048.576
GB (GigaByte)= 1.073.741.824
TB (TeraByte)= 1.099.511.627.776
