Editing Bit-count integrity

{{No footnotes|date=March 2025}}

In [[telecommunications]], the term '''bit-count integrity''' (BCI) has the following meanings: 

#In [[message]] communications, the preservation of the exact number of bits that are in the original message.
#In [[telecommunication connection|connection]]-oriented services, preservation of the number of bits per unit [[time]].

''Note:''  [[Bit]]-count integrity is not the same as bit integrity, which requires that the delivered bits correspond exactly with the original bits.
