Gigabytes per Second to Megabits per Second Converter

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

1 gigabyte per second = 8,000 megabits per second

How to convert gigabytes per second to megabits per second

FormulaMbit/s = GB/s × 8,000

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

A gigabyte per second is larger than a megabit per second: one gigabyte per second contains 8,000 megabits 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).

Megabit per second (Mbit/s)

One million bits per second — the standard unit for broadband and Wi-Fi speeds. One megabit per second equals 1,000,000 bits per second (bit/s).

Frequently asked questions

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

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

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

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

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

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

What is 10 gigabytes per second in megabits per second?

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

Is this GB/s to Mbit/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.
