Formula to convert kilobit per second to gigabit per second

To convert kilobit per second to gigabit per second, divide by 1000000.

1 kbit/s = 0.000001 Gbit/s
Example: 1 kilobit per second = 0.000001 gigabit per second

Common mistakes

  • MB/s (bytes) and Mb/s (bits) differ by a factor of 8, and the letter case is the only visible difference. Gigabit networking at 1 Gbit/s moves 125 MB/s of file data. Always check whether a spec uses the big or the small b.
  • Network speeds always count in decimal: 1 kbit/s = 1,000 bit/s and 1 Mbit/s = 1,000,000 bit/s. Binary prefixes (Kibit/s, Mibit/s, based on 1,024) are a different scale mostly seen in download managers. Don't mix the scales when comparing measured speed against what your ISP promised.
