  • Bandwidth

    Posted in Tech Terms by Leigh

  • Technically, bandwidth is the range of frequencies that can be passed over a transmission channel. Frequency is measured in hertz (Hz) or cycles per second. The larger this range, the greater amount of information can be sent through the channel.

  • An analogy would be a motorway with several lanes, each lane is the equivalent of a frequency band, the more lanes, the more traffic can flow past a certain point in a given amount of time.

    Some people refer to bandwidth to express the rate at which data is being transmitted through a medium. In digital systems the rates are measured in bits per second (bps).
