  2. Data-rate units - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  3. Bit rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_rate

    The physical layer net bitrate, [12] information rate, [6] useful bit rate, [13] payload rate, [14] net data transfer rate, [9] coded transmission rate, [7] effective data rate [7] or wire speed (informal language) of a digital communication channel is the capacity excluding the physical layer protocol overhead, for example time division ...

    Download the data dump using a BitTorrent client (torrenting has many benefits and reduces server load, saving bandwidth costs). pages-articles-multistream.xml.bz2 – Current revisions only, no talk or user pages; this is probably what you want, and is over 19 GB compressed (expands to over 86 GB when decompressed).

  5. BPS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BPS

    IBM Basic Programming Support, BPS/360; Bits per second (bit/s, sometimes abbreviated bps), a data rate unit; Bytes per second (B/s, sometimes abbreviated Bps), a data rate unit; Bits per sample (bps), referring to color depth

  6. Modem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modem

    Modems are frequently classified by the maximum amount of data they can send in a given unit of time, usually expressed in bits per second (symbol bit/s, sometimes abbreviated "bps") or rarely in bytes per second (symbol B/s). Modern broadband modem speeds are typically expressed in megabits per second (Mbit/s).

  8. Baud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baud

    The baud unit is named after Émile Baudot, the inventor of the Baudot code for telegraphy, and is represented according to the rules for SI units.That is, the first letter of its symbol is uppercase (Bd), but when the unit is spelled out, it should be written in lowercase (baud) except when it begins a sentence or is capitalized for another reason, such as in title case.

  9. Data rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_rate

    Data signaling rate or gross bit rate, a bit rate that includes protocol overhead; Symbol rate or baud rate, the number of symbol changes, waveform changes, or signaling events across the transmission medium per unit of time; Data-rate units, measures of the bit rate or baud rate of a link
