Gigabits per Second to Bytes per Second

How to convert gigabits per second to bytes per second

FormulaB/s = Gbit/s × 125,000,000

Multiply the value in gigabits per second by 125,000,000. To go the other way, multiply by 8×10⁻⁹ (or divide by 125,000,000).

A gigabit per second is larger than a byte per second: one gigabit per second contains 125,000,000 bytes per second.

About the units

Gigabit per second (Gbit/s)

One billion bits per second; fibre broadband and Ethernet ports are rated in Gbps. One gigabit per second equals 1,000,000,000 bits per second (bit/s).

Byte per second (B/s)

The byte per second (B/s) is a unit of data transfer rate. One byte per second equals 8 bits per second (bit/s).

Frequently asked questions

How many bytes per second are in one gigabit per second?

There are 125,000,000 bytes per second in one gigabit per second, and this value is exact by definition.

How do I convert gigabits per second to bytes per second?

Multiply the number of gigabits per second by 125,000,000. For example, 10 Gbit/s × 125,000,000 = 1,250,000,000 B/s.

How many gigabits per second are in one byte per second?

One byte per second equals 8×10⁻⁹ gigabits per second. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 125,000,000.

What is 10 gigabits per second in bytes per second?

10 Gbit/s = 1,250,000,000 B/s.

Is this Gbit/s to B/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.
