What does 1 byte/second [B/s] represent?

It represents a data transfer rate where one byte is transmitted or processed every second.

What is an STM-64 signal?

STM-64 is a high-capacity Synchronous Transport Module signal used in SDH networks with a line rate of about 9.95328 Gbit/s.

Why convert byte/second to STM-64 units?

To understand how lower digital data rates correspond to the high-capacity optical fiber signals used in telecommunications.

Does this converter include network overhead?

No, the conversion assumes a fixed line rate and does not consider protocol overhead or network inefficiencies.
