The term Mbps is a unit of measurement that expresses broadband speed, or how fast data is transferred across a network. More specifically, it stands for megabits per second and should not be confused with megabytes per second, or MBps, a similar but completely separate measurement unit. Major Internet service providers use the Mbps measurement to advertise what kind of Internet services they offer. According to comments made by service providers Verizon and Time Warner in 2013, 50Mbps is the speed that most Internet customers are demanding.
By its very definition, broadband is a high speed Internet connection which is also always on. Dial-up access, on the other hand, requires a modem to initiate a 56 Kbps connection to the Internet. The FCC raised the minimum speed of broadband to 4 Mbps downstream, and 1 Mbps upstream.roadband speed is measured in megabits per second, commonly stated as Mb or Mbps (i.e. 15Mb or 15 Mbps). The smallest unit of digital data is a bit. A byte is equal to 8 bits, and a thousand bytes is a Kilobyte.
