Glossary of Broadband Terms


  • Bandwidth: the rate at which data can be transmitted between your computer and the testing servers.
  • kbps or kb/s: kilobits per second - a measure of Bandwidth. File sizes are normally indicated in terms of "bytes"; one byte is equal to 8 bits. In other words, 1000 kilobits per second is equal to 125 kilobytes per second.
  • Mbps or Mb/s: Megabits per second - another measure of Bandwidth. One Megabit is equal to 1024 kilobits.
  • Packet: a unit of data capable of being routed through a computer network.
  • Latency: the time it takes for a single packet of data to be sent from your computer to the testing server and back (the "round trip" time). This is measured in milliseconds, or thousandths of a second.
  • Jitter: a measure of the variability in Latency.
