''Bandwidth'' by definition is the maximum amount of data transmitted through your network at a single given moment. Typically represents the network capacity, carrying information from one ___location to another, similar to a highway system. The larger the highway, the more cars that can drive from one ___location to another.
 
Bandwidth determines the potential for how much data can be transferred and at what rate. While it doesn’t directly control the speed at which data travels, it provides the capacity for more information to flow. There are different types of bandwidths, including Network bandwidth, Digital bandwidth, Analog bandwidth, Baseband bandwidth, Broadband bandwidth, and many more. All these different variations share a common characteristic: they define the maximum data throughput or capacity available for communication within those bandwidths. These variations primarily differ in how they are used or the technology that supports them, but all serve to enable data transfer at varying scales and speeds.
