The modem's data transfer rate is measured in
Correct answer: A. .Bps
- A. .Bps
- B. mbps
- C. gbps
- D. kbps
Explanation
The correct answer is (a) bps.Bps (bits per second) is the most basic unit for measuring data transfer rate. It refers to the number of bits (individual binary digits) that can be transmitted over a communication channel in one second. Modems, which modulate and demodulate signals for data transmission, traditionally have their data transfer rates specified in bps. This is because bps provides a granular measure of the data flow, which is important for these devices.
