Gigabytes per Second to Bits per Second Converter

Convert gigabytes per second (GB/s) to bits per second (bit/s). 1 gigabyte per second = 8,000,000,000 bits per second (exact)

1 gigabyte per second = 8,000,000,000 bits per second

How to convert gigabytes per second to bits per second

Formulabit/s = GB/s × 8,000,000,000

Multiply the value in gigabytes per second by 8,000,000,000. To go the other way, multiply by 1.25×10⁻¹⁰ (or divide by 8,000,000,000).

A gigabyte per second is larger than a bit per second: one gigabyte per second contains 8,000,000,000 bits per second.

About the units

Gigabyte per second (GB/s)

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

Bit per second (bit/s)

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

Frequently asked questions

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

There are 8,000,000,000 bits per second in one gigabyte per second, and this value is exact by definition.

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

Multiply the number of gigabytes per second by 8,000,000,000. For example, 10 GB/s × 8,000,000,000 = 80,000,000,000 bit/s.

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

One bit per second equals 1.25×10⁻¹⁰ gigabytes per second. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 8,000,000,000.

What is 10 gigabytes per second in bits per second?

10 GB/s = 80,000,000,000 bit/s.

Is this GB/s to bit/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.
