- Bandwidth is a measure of the
available capacity of a network (to
carry data) measured in bits per
second
- The transmission rate is a measure of the number of pieces of information that have been
transferred during a specific time period, usually also measured in bits per second. A high bandwidth
means more information can be carried in a given time, so a higher transmission rate is achieved.
Insufficient bandwidth can result in websites and servers appearing to run very slowly
- Bandwidth and transmission rate
