1. The network provides access speeds of 64 kilobits per second and 2 megabits per second.

2. One kilobit ( Kb ) is 1024 bits.

3. One kilobit ( Kb ) is 1024 bits. One megabit ( Mb ) is 1024 kilobits. One gigabit ( Gb ) is 1024 megabits.

4. Commercial broadband Internet commonly has 256 kilobit per second, which is about the slowest broadband speed for connections advertised worldwide.

5. Most of these networks transmit data at relatively low speeds of 192 kilobits per second or less.

6. Traditionally, computer networks transmitted data at relatively low speeds measured primarily in kilobits per second.

7. Current tests show a maximum speed of about 6 megabits per second for downloads and about 640 kilobits per second upstream.

8. These networks connect universities and research institutions at data transmission speeds ranging from 64 kilobits per second to 2 megabits per second.
