What Is A Bandwidth?

Apparently, gettowork has nothing better to do than surf blurtit and put ignorant (and incorrect) answers up.  From a computing perspective, bandwidth is an abbreviation for network bandwidth, which refers to the amount of available or consumed data communication resources (measured in bits per second).  A very slow link might transmit at 2 Mb/s, while it's not uncommon for aDSL connections to run at a minimum of 8-10 Mb/sec.

It is a data transmission rate; the maximum amount of information (bits/second) that can be transmitted along a channel in computer teminology

Refers to the data transmission capacity of a communications channel. The greater a channel's bandwidth, the more information it can carry per channel. It is confusing to many since they use the prefix 'BAND' and they do that because this data is transferred over different Bands or channels or really Frequencies. That is what they should have used IMO. Think of it like your radio. FM 105.7 is a channel or a band with the frequency of 105.7 Mega Hertz, MHz. Each frequency can only carry so much data over it. Once TV goes digital, all the frequencies that were use to transmit TV signals over the air are up for grabs to be used to Internet broadband usage and there is a big debate on who will get these. The feds surely will get a good size piece.

Bandwidth is the capecity of a chennel or medium to transmitt the data in unit time. Today's network gives bandwidth upto 8 to 10 Mbps.

The width of your band.  Bigger is better.
