Minimum standard of measurement of buffer size handled by electronics. Simplified, non-technical: Adding 'bits' would just indicate how many bytes / 8 + bits in last byte of data transferred. Last byte in transfer message would still be processed as a full byte by electronics, even if less than 8 bits. So, no total through put change. aka from electonic path through put standpoint, 33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40 bits is same as a 5 bytes.
