Question
Write a short note on the following:
Data transfer rate
Solution
The data transfer rate is the number of bits transmitted between the source and destination in one second. It is also known as the bit rate. It is measured in terms of bits per second (bps).
The higher units for data transfer rates are:
1 Kbps = 210 bps = 1024 bps
1 Mbps = 220 bps = 1024 Kbps
1 Gbps = 230 bps = 1024 Mbps
1 Tbps = 240 bps = 1024 Gbps
