Those questions may sound silly to some of you, but I have not found
satisfactory answers in the literature or on the archives.
0. How do you choose the clock rate on an serial interface?
1. What is the relationship (if any) between the wire rate and the clock
rate?
2. What is the relationship if any between the clock rate and the bandwidth?
3. How could clock rate speed be "gentle on cables"? (See archive bellow)

Well, in the Cisco training labs, we generally used 56 or 64 Kbps. A
conservative speed that was gentle on cable requirements.
In a lab, you'll frequently find that slower is better, if, for
example, you are running a debug and want to see events.
