Define bit rate?

Bit rate would be the number of bit processed per time frame, normally per second Old modems commonly worked as 4800 Baud or 9600 Baud which would be 4800 bits per second and 9600 bits per second respectively


What does bitrate mean?

Bitrate: the number of bits per second that can be transmitted along a digital network.


What is bit rate?

A bit rate is a transmission rate of binary symbols equal to the total number of bits transmitted in one second sent or received across a network or communications channel.


What is the usual number of bits transmitted simultaneously in parallel data transmission used by microcomputers?

9


The two parts of MAC addresses?

Yes - the first bits specify the network, the remaining bits, a host within a network. There is no fixed number of bits for the network; this may vary.Yes - the first bits specify the network, the remaining bits, a host within a network.

How many hosts and host bits are possible if you have an IP of 172.30.1.33 with a network mask of 255.255.0.0?

number of hots bits is 16 number of hosts 65 534


Are bits transmitted through television?

Yes, bits are transmitted through televison, just like any other computer storage file.


What is the maximum number of bits that can be borrowed with class b?

The maximum number of host bits that can be borrowed from a class A address is 22 (technically you could borrow 23 but the resulting network would be useless). A class A address uses 8 bits for its network address and 24 bits for its host addresses. Class A uses a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 You can only borrow 22 bits (instead of 24) because a valid network requires 4 addresses: A network address, two host addresses and a broadcast address. These networks would result in 30 bits used for the network address and 2 bits used for the host addresses. These networks use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.252


In bits before subnetting how large is the host portion in a Class A network?

In a class A network, the first 8 bits specify the network, the remaining 24 bits specify the host.


What is difference between megabits and kilobits in a download?

Kilobits = one thousand bits per second transmitted Megabit = one million bits per second transmitted


What does it mean to borrow 4 bits for subnets?

When you borrow bits for a subnet you are intruding into the client portion of an IP address. As a result, you will lose clients in your network because the "borrowed" portion becomes the extended network prefix. This allows you to separate your bigger network into smaller, logical networks (subnets). The number of bits borrowed will indicate the total number of smaller subnets that you can support in your network. In each case, regardless of class of address, borrowing 4 bits gives a total of 14 subnets (in the classical sense) and 16 subnets (in Cisco).


How do you know how many bits represent the network portion and the host portion?

When we express an IPv4 network address, we add a prefix length to the network address. The prefix length is the number of bits in the address that gives us the network portion. For example, in 172.16.4.0 /24, the /24 is the prefix length - it tells us that the first 24 bits are the network address. This leaves the remaining 8 bits, the last octet, as the host portion.
