    Data rate varies depending on the quantity of data. For example, assuming 460 byte data is being sent, with a Lead-In Delay of 100ms and Lead-Out Delay (tait Time) of 20ms, the effective data rate is calculated below. Note that these calculations are theoretical only as there are other real-life factors not being considered.
