The bandwidth and the amount of delay, bandwidth, including the word FAQ in the world of computer networks is that of data transmission by a network connection or an interface, etc. noted. This dictionary of Electrical Engineering is adapted. In this branch of science, bandwidth represents the total distance or range between the highest and lowest signals on the channel, (of the band. That, in order to measure the size of the bandwidth of the unit "number of bits per second" or bps can be used.

bandwidth is the only factor determining the speed of a network from the angle of users, not the other one of the elements of the influential, the "amount of delay" in a network that can be several programs on the network implementation or another, affect.
