Conventions
This section outlines the conventions used in this guide.
Measurement Conventions
Measurements in this guide are expressed according to the Systeme International
d’Unites (SI) standards for metric units and abbreviation. Equivalent Imperial
measurements (used in the United States) are provided in parentheses, except
when Imperial is the international standard.
Bits and Bytes
For clarity, bits and bytes are not abbreviated in this document, but their prefixes
are. SOMA Networks follows the common practice of using SI prefixes (base 10)
with these terms. Thus, 1 kbit/s (kilobit per second) is equivalent to 1000 bits/s;
it should not be confused with 1 Kibit/s (kilobinary bit per second) or 1 x 2
10
=
1024 bits/s.
