Bits per Second to Kilobytes per Second

How to convert bits per second to kilobytes per second

FormulakB/s = bit/s × 0.000125

Multiply the value in bits per second by 0.000125. To go the other way, multiply by 8,000 (or divide by 0.000125).

A bit per second is smaller than a kilobyte per second: it takes 8,000 bits per second to make one kilobyte per second.

About the units

Bit per second (bit/s)

The bit per second (bit/s) is a unit of data transfer rate.

Kilobyte per second (kB/s)

The kilobyte per second (kB/s) is a unit of data transfer rate in the International System of Units (SI). One kilobyte per second equals 8,000 bits per second (bit/s).

Frequently asked questions

How many kilobytes per second are in one bit per second?

There are 0.000125 kilobytes per second in one bit per second, and this value is exact by definition.

How do I convert bits per second to kilobytes per second?

Multiply the number of bits per second by 0.000125. For example, 10 bit/s × 0.000125 = 0.00125 kB/s.

How many bits per second are in one kilobyte per second?

One kilobyte per second equals 8,000 bits per second. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 0.000125.

What is 10 bits per second in kilobytes per second?

10 bit/s = 0.00125 kB/s.

Is this bit/s to kB/s converter accurate?

Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
