Network capacity

Network capacity refers to the maximum amount of data that can be transmitted through a network over a given period. Think of it like a highway’s lane capacity; the more lanes, the more cars (or data) can pass simultaneously. In digital terms, higher network capacity means faster data transfer rates and the ability to handle more users or devices at once, reducing delays and buffering. It depends on factors like bandwidth, technology, and infrastructure. A network with higher capacity ensures smoother, more reliable internet experiences, especially when multiple devices or high-demand activities are involved.
