Term2.png BANDWIDTH
Capacity of a communication channel to carry information. It’s related to the size of the wire that connects computers in a network and how much information can flow over it. The more bandwidth available, the faster information can flow. Bandwidth limitations can make e-learning using high-level video, graphics, and even audio very difficult. It’s the same reason surfing the net can be so slow at times.[1]
