Terabits Per Second (Tbps)

Unit Breakdown

Bit = the smallest unit of data (a 0 or 1)
Tera = one trillion (10^12)
Terabit Per Second (Tbps) = 1,000,000,000,000 bits per second

What is Terabits Per Second (Tbps)?

Terabits per second (Tbps) is a unit of measurement used to describe data transfer speed -extremely high data transfer speeds. It denotes how many trillions of bits can be moved through a connection in one single second.

Common Use: Used strictly for the "backbone" of the internet. Global undersea cables, massive data center interconnects (like Google or Amazon), and core ISP infrastructure operate at these speeds.
