While 兆 nominally means "mega-", in the specific context of computer networking, it is also short for megabit per second (in the same way that "meg" can be in English), which is most often just "megabit". However, while "meg" is used more like slang, "百兆/千兆“ seem to be completely normal ways to describe such speeds, even in official marketing material. The formal name for 100Mbps speeds over Ethernet specifically (which this virtually always is) is 100Base-T.

Likewise "千兆“ is literally just "giga", but in the networking sense means Gbps specifically. Usually just "gigabit" in English as an attributive on "networking" or "Ethernet" (despite that in theory being a unit of data size, not speed, the "per second" getting dropped) or "gig" as slang.
