How to convert gigabits per second to kilobits per second
kbit/s = Gbit/s × 1,000,000Multiply the value in gigabits per second by 1,000,000. To go the other way, multiply by 0.000001 (or divide by 1,000,000).
A gigabit per second is larger than a kilobit per second: one gigabit per second contains 1,000,000 kilobits 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).
Kilobit per second (kbit/s)
1,000 bits per second. Audio streams are measured in kbps (e.g. 320 kbps MP3).
Frequently asked questions
How many kilobits per second are in one gigabit per second?
There are 1,000,000 kilobits per second in one gigabit per second, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert gigabits per second to kilobits per second?
Multiply the number of gigabits per second by 1,000,000. For example, 10 Gbit/s × 1,000,000 = 10,000,000 kbit/s.
How many gigabits per second are in one kilobit per second?
One kilobit per second equals 0.000001 gigabits per second. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 1,000,000.
What is 10 gigabits per second in kilobits per second?
10 Gbit/s = 10,000,000 kbit/s.
Is this Gbit/s to kbit/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.
