Transmission Data Rate Terminology
| Data Rate | Abbreviation | Lower | Upper |
|---|---|---|---|
| Extremely Low Data Rate | ELDR | 300 bit/s | 3 kbit/s |
| Very Low Data Rate | VLDR | 3 kbit/s | 30 kbit/s |
| Low Data Rate | LDR | 30 kbit/s | 300 kbit/s |
| Medium Data Rate | MDR | 300 kbit/s | 3 Mbit/s |
| High Data Rate | HDR | 3 Mbit/s | 30 Mbit/s |
| Very High Data Rate | VHDR | 30 Mbit/s | 300 Mbit/s |
| Ultra High Data Rate | UHDR | 300 Mbit/s | 3 Gbit/s |
| Super High Data Rate | SHDR | 3 Gbit/s | 30 Gbit/s |
| Extremely High Data Rate | EHDR | 30 Gbit/s | 300 Gbit/s |
Based upon proposal from davisnetworks.com. 1 Mbit/s is defined as 1,000,000 bits per second signal data rate (OSI Layer 1).

Famous quotes containing the words data and/or rate:
“This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“At this very moment,... the most frightful horrors are taking place in every corner of the world. People are being crushed, slashed, disembowelled, mangled; their dead bodies rot and their eyes decay with the rest. Screams of pain and fear go pulsing through the air at the rate of eleven hundred feet per second. After travelling for three seconds they are perfectly inaudible. These are distressing facts; but do we enjoy life any the less because of them? Most certainly we do not.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
