What exactly is Bandwich?

Question

My boss said that I shouldn't listen to the radio online because it uses up all our bandwich. What does that mean? I know that websites have bandwich but we are just a normal lumber company so I don't understand.

Answer 1

Wrong! to the 1st replier, spelt wrong again!

It's bandwith - see here for details http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth

Answer 2

This means when others are trying to use the internet on your common internet connection that the others are getting much slower browsing because your radio feed is dominating the connection. It is like when someone is taking a shower and you open a faucet to full in another part of the house. Their water pressure goes down a whole lot and it takes longer for them to finish their shower.

Answer 3

a range of frequencies or wavelengths used in radio transmission
A band is a small section of the spectrum of radio communication frequencies, in which channels are usually used or set aside for the same purpose. Examples include:

AM broadcast band (530–1610kHz, to 1700 in the Americas)
Shortwave bands (5.9–26.1 MHz)
Citizens' band
Television stations 2–6 (54–88 MHz in the Americas)
FM broadcast band (88–108 MHz, except 76–90 in Japan)
Aircraft band (108–136 MHz), for air traffic control
Television stations 7–13 (174–216 MHz in the Americas)
L band (1452–1492 MHz) for digital radio (DAB) outside the US
Amateur radio bands among several different frequencies
Military bands
X-Band 8–10 GHz
S-Band 1750–2400 MHz
Radionavigation beacons, such as LORAN and GPS
Each of these bands has a basic bandplan which dictates how it is to be used and shared, to avoid interference and to set protocol for the compatibility of transmitters and receivers.

Note that as a matter of physics, bands are divided at wavelengths of 10n metres, or frequencies of 3×10n hertz. For example, 30 MHz or 10 m divides shortwave (lower and longer) from VHF (shorter and higher). These are the parts of the radio spectrum, and not its frequency allocation.

Answer 4

Bandwidth is a general term. Organizations pay,usually per month,on the amount of bandwidth they receive from their ISP. There are tiers of bandwidth denoted by throughput such as 128k up and 256k down. The more bandwidth taken by one user leaves others users with less,get it? Hope this helps. :-)=
