Data Signaling Rate - Transmission Data Rate Terminology

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)

    ““Terence, this is stupid stuff:
    You eat your victuals fast enough;
    There can’t be much amiss, ‘tis clear,
    To see the rate you drink your beer.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
