KiloBits
A kilobit is 1,024 bits, used primarily for measuring the speed of data transmission. It’s often seen in the context of internet bandwidth, where higher kilobit rates mean faster data transfer. It’s a smaller unit compared to bytes, but it's crucial for evaluating the performance of network connections and streaming speeds.
Bytes
A byte is a collection of 8 bits and is one of the most commonly used units of digital information. It typically represents one character, such as a letter, number, or symbol, in a computer's memory. Bytes are the building blocks of larger data units and are used extensively in defining the storage and memory capacities of electronic devices.
