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:

    To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it—all my life.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    Writing a book I have found to be like building a house. A man forms a plan, and collects materials. He thinks he has enough to raise a large and stately edifice; but after he has arranged, compacted and polished, his work turns out to be a very small performance. The authour however like the builder, knows how much labour his work has cost him; and therefore estimates it at a higher rate than other people think it deserves,
    James Boswell (1740–1795)
