Ancho de Banda

Definición

El ancho de banda es la capacidad máxima de transferencia de datos de un canal de comunicación, típicamente medida en bits por segundo (bps, Mbps, Gbps).

Explicación

Bandwidth represents the theoretical ceiling, not the actual speed achieved in practice. A fiber link may have 1 Gbps bandwidth but deliver less throughput due to protocol overhead and network congestion. The term originates from radio engineering, where it described the range of frequencies a channel could carry. Consumer broadband plans typically offer 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps downstream bandwidth.
