| | Measuring data throughput - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The throughput is then calculated by dividing the file size by the time to get the throughput in megabits, kilobits, or bits per second. |
 | | The throughput of communications links is measured in bits per second (bit/s), kilobits per second (kbit/s), megabits per second (Mbit/s) and Gigabits per second (Gbit/s). |
 | | When talking about circuit throughputs, people will interchangeably use the terms throughput, bandwidth and speed, and refer to a circuit as being a '64 k' circuit, or a '2 meg' circuit — meaning 64 kbit/s or 2 Mbit/s. |
