The difference between the highest and lowest frequencies to which a receiver is sensitive.

A relative range of frequencies that can carry a signal on a transmission medium.

The amount of information that can be transmitted over communications lines at one time. The higher the bandwidth, the faster the Web page loads. Limited bandwidth is the main reason for keeping pictures small. Just as it seems we will never have fast enough computers, it feels like we will never have enough bandwidth. The amount of research and development money being thrown at this problem should yield surprising results before long.

The complete range of frequencies over which a circuit or electronic system is allocated to function. In transmission, the US analog and digital television channel bandwidth is 6 MHz.
www.wgcu.org/watch/hdtv_glossaryofterms.html
The amount of data that can be transmitted in a fixed amount of time. For digital devices, the bandwidth is usually expressed in bits per second, (bps) or bytes per second. For analog devices, the bandwidth is expressed in cycles per second, or Hertz (Hz).

A measure of the capacity of data that can be moved between two points in a given period of time.

A measure of the capacity of a communications channel. The higher a channel's bandwidth, the more information it can carry.
www.tamu.edu/ode/glossary.html
The carrying capacity or size of a communications channel; usually expressed in hertz (cycles per second) for analog circuits (the original meaning of the term) and in bits per second (bps) for digital circuits (newer meaning). BERT See Bit Error Rate Test Bearer Channel A 64 kbps channel in basic rate and primary rate services of ISDN used for customer message exchange.

A very diminishing natural resource... bandwidth is a measure of the amount of data passing through a network at a given time. Things like huge images on web pages and needless questions posted to Usenet newsgroups waste bandwidth which could be better utilized for transferring information.
htmlhelp.com/reference/glossary.html
Bandwidth refers to how fast data flows through the path that it travels to your computer; it's usually measured in kilobits, megabits or gigabits per second.
www.broadband.gc.ca/pub/technologies/bbdictionary.html
Measure of the information-carrying capacity of an optical fiber. Note: This term is often used to specify the normalized modal bandwidth (MHz·km) of a multimode fiber. See Dispersion for single-mode fibers.
