Bandwidth Converter
Free online bandwidth/data transfer rate converter.
๐ก Tip: Pay attention to bps (lowercase b=bit) vs B/s (uppercase B=Byte)! 1 Byte = 8 bits. ISPs advertise speeds in Mbps โ a "100Mbps" connection gives about 12.5 MB/s max download speed.
๐ Unit Reference Table
| Unit | Conversion to bps | Description |
|---|---|---|
| bps (bps) | 1 bps = 1 bps | Bits per second, base unit |
| Kbps (Kbps) | 1 Kbps = 1000 bps | Kilobits per second |
| Mbps (Mbps) | 1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bps | Megabits per second, broadband |
| Gbps (Gbps) | 1 Gbps = 1,000,000,000 bps | Gigabits per second, fiber |
| B/s (B/s) | 1 B/s = 8 bps | Bytes per second, 1B=8bits |
| KB/s (KB/s) | 1 KB/s = 8,000 bps | Kilobytes per second |
| MB/s (MB/s) | 1 MB/s = 8,000,000 bps | Megabytes per second, downloads |
| GB/s (GB/s) | 1 GB/s = 8,000,000,000 bps | Gigabytes per second, SSD speed |
โ FAQ
What's the download speed of 100Mbps?
100 Mbps = 12.5 MB/s. Since 1 Byte = 8 bits, divide by 8: 100 รท 8 = 12.5 MB/s. This is the theoretical maximum; actual speeds vary with network conditions.
What's the difference between Mbps and MB/s?
Mbps (Megabits per second) measures network bandwidth. MB/s (Megabytes per second) measures file transfer speed. 1 MB/s = 8 Mbps. ISPs advertise speeds in Mbps.
How to convert Kbps to KB/s?
1 KB/s = 8 Kbps. The lowercase 'b' means bit, uppercase 'B' means Byte. Remember the 8:1 ratio.
