Hello friend, bandwidth is a data transmission rate, the maximum amount of information bit per second, that can be transmitted along a channel or medium. Throughput is the amount data transferred in one direction over a link divided by the time taken to transfer it, and this usually expressed in bits or bytes per second. Maybe explanation using word maybe get confuse to some people. Try visit Youtube search about this title "Bandwidth vs. Throughput" maybe this short video can help you more.
