Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does 'modem (110)' mean in data transfer?
-
It refers to a modem transmission speed of about 110 bits per second, a legacy rate used in early dial-up and teleprinter communications.
-
Why convert from USB to modem (110)?
-
To compare modern high-speed USB transfers with early low-speed modem communications, useful in historical and vintage computing contexts.
-
Can this conversion reflect accurate USB data rates?
-
No, modem (110) is a fixed low data rate unit and does not capture the variable speeds of different USB generations.
Key Terminology
-
USB
-
Universal Serial Bus; a standard for data communication and power delivery between computers and peripherals across various generations.
-
Modem (110)
-
A legacy modem data transfer rate of approximately 110 bits per second used in early dial-up and teleprinter systems.
