Kilobits per Second to Gigabits per Second Converter

Convert kilobits per second (kbit/s) to gigabits per second (Gbit/s). 1 kilobit per second = 0.000001 gigabits per second (exact)

1 kilobit per second = 0.000001 gigabits per second

How to convert kilobits per second to gigabits per second

FormulaGbit/s = kbit/s × 0.000001

Multiply the value in kilobits per second by 0.000001. To go the other way, multiply by 1,000,000 (or divide by 0.000001).

A kilobit per second is smaller than a gigabit per second: it takes 1,000,000 kilobits per second to make one gigabit per second.

About the units

Kilobit per second (kbit/s)

1,000 bits per second. Audio streams are measured in kbps (e.g. 320 kbps MP3).

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).

Frequently asked questions

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

There are 0.000001 gigabits per second in one kilobit per second, and this value is exact by definition.

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

Multiply the number of kilobits per second by 0.000001. For example, 10 kbit/s × 0.000001 = 0.00001 Gbit/s.

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

One gigabit per second equals 1,000,000 kilobits per second. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 0.000001.

What is 10 kilobits per second in gigabits per second?

10 kbit/s = 0.00001 Gbit/s.

Is this kbit/s to Gbit/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.
