What does the modem (2400) unit represent?

It denotes a modem data-transfer rate of 2400 bits per second, reflecting early dial-up modem speeds.

How is terabyte/second (SI def.) defined?

It is the data transfer rate where one terabyte, or 10^12 bytes, is moved each second, equivalent to 8 terabits per second.

Why convert from modem (2400) to terabyte/second?

To understand and compare legacy low data rates to modern high-performance digital transfer speeds.
