Delay refers to the RTT (round trip time), and bandwidth is measured in bits/s. Therefore the delay X bandwidth product is the amount of data (bits) in the pipe or unacknowledged in one round trip time. Given x bits for the advertised window 2^x >= Delay X Bandwidth means that you can continuously send data if acks arrive in RTT/2 time as expected.
