Answer 2

Answer:

Bandwidth describes the ‘maximum data transfer rate’ of a network or ‘Internet connection’.

Explanation:

Bandwidth is the ‘measurement’ of how much data could be transmitted over a provided connection in a given amount of time. For example, consider an Ethernet connection of a gigabit has a bandwidth of 1000 Mbps.

An internet connection through a cable modem can have 25 Mbps of bandwidth. In simple terms, bandwidth is used for describing the network speeds, but it does not measure the fast movement of data bits from one location to another.
