What does Mbps represent in bits per second?

Mbps stands for "megabits per second," which is a unit of measurement used to quantify data transfer speeds. One megabit is equal to one million bits, so when we say a connection speed is, for example, 100 Mbps, it means that it can theoretically transfer 100 million bits of data every second. This measurement is commonly used to describe the speed of internet connections, streaming services, and data transfers.
