bps - Definition
bps is an abbreviation for bits per second. It is the measure of transmission speed used in relation to networks and communication lines. Although bps represents the basic unit of measure, networks and communications devices are so fast that speeds are usually represented in multiples of bps, such as Kbps (kilobits, or thousands of bits, per second), Mbps (megabits, or millions of bits, per second), and Gbps (gigabits, or billions of bits, per second). Note that bps is distinct from BPS which defines “bytes per second” and is primarily used for defining actual Internet throughput.
