Hi Pierre,

A bit-time is the time it takes to send a bit. 

For 10Mb Ethernet a bit-time is a 100 nanoseconds (10 Megabit per second, so
1 bit per 100 nanoseconds), for Fast Ethernet it is 10 nanoseconds and so on.

So if a workstation on a Fast Ethernet network were to wait 5 bit-times, it
actually waits 50 nanoseconds.

Hth,
Remmert
