There are numerous synonyms for Mbps including megabytes per second, Mb/s, Mb/sec, Mb per sec, and megabits/sec. It is important to note that Mbps is different from MBps which stands for megabytes per second. Other common measures of data transfer speeds include Kbps (kilobits per second) and Gbps (gigabits per second). Understanding these terms and their synonyms is important when assessing internet speeds and other data transfer rates.
