    The difference between the highest and lowest frequencies of a transmission channel (the width of its allocated band of frequencies). The term is often used erroneously to mean {data rate} or capacity - the amount of {data} that is, or can be, sent through a given communications circuit per second.

      The width, in [Hertz], of the pass-band of any equipment that can process information. Most computer data transfer works at base-band (unlike radio transmitters, which usually operate on some higher wave band) so the bandwidth is usually equal to its [baud] rate.

                    1. [common] Used by hackers (in a generalization of its technical
                      meaning) as the volume of information per unit time that a computer,
                      person, or transmission medium can handle. “Those are amazing
                      graphics, but I missed some of the detail — not enough bandwidth, I
                      guess.” Compare low-bandwidth; see also
                      brainwidth. This generalized usage began to go
                      mainstream after the Internet population explosion of 1993-1994. 2. Attention span. 3. On Usenet, a measure of network capacity
                      that is often wasted by people complaining about how items posted by others
                      are a waste of bandwidth.
