Sending or receiving emails with large attachements, photos, data bases etc.Using the calculator above, a 1GB file will take nearly 5 minutes to download on a 30Mb DSL and, because the upload on DSL might only be 1Mb, uploading or sending that same 1GB fie could take over 2 hours and in that time all other user's experience will be impacted. Uploading or downloading big files, anything over 10MB will have some impact, especially on smaller pipes such as DSL.So where does it all go and what is typically consuming my bandwidth? So a 100Mb pipe will transfer 100Mb per sec or 100MB in about 9 secs or 1GB in 90s or 1TB in 90,000s or * 30TB in 2,700,000s which is about 31 days or a nominal month The data volume when reassembled in the pot (or on the hard drive) is measured in Bytes (=9 bits), big”B” so 10GB or 2TB
How to work it out or QED quod erat demonstrandum: Well, there are 8 bits (lower case b) in a Byte (upper case B) plus 1 parity bit so we’ll call it 9 bits = 1 Byteĭata transfer is always measured in bits, the data transfers serially in bits, little “b” so 10Mb or 1Gb
Q1: My pipe is 100 Mb so how much data can I transfer in an hour, day, week, monthĪnswer: 30TB in a month (30 days) * see calculator above Please give one of our solutions team a call on 01252 810010 Frameborder="0" allowfullscreen> Datanet can help you with all your bandwidth and backup requirements.
