The effect of bandwidth is very simple to understand and understand, as it allows the link to
achieve its theoretical maximum throughput. For example, using a single T1 connection, the
maximum achievable rate is 1.55 mbps; for T3 it is 45 mbps; with OC3 it increases to 155 mbps,
and with Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) links this maximum reaches the impressive order of Gigabits per
second.
