"Gigabit Per Second (Gbps) to Kilobit Per Second (Kbps) Diagram" — click any bar to view its data unit page, or set it as source/target.

To convert gigabits per second to kilobits per second, multiply by 1,000,000. Both units measure network bandwidth in bits per second—the difference is simply the scale.

Gbps: A gigabit per second is 1,000 megabits per second. Used for fiber internet and enterprise networking. Common uses include Fiber internet, enterprise networks, data center connections, 10GbE.

Kbps: A kilobit per second is 1,000 bits per second. Common for dial-up and low-speed connections. Typically used for Dial-up internet, audio streaming, VoIP calls.

1 Gbps = 1,000,000 Kbps — which means there are 1,000,000kilobits per second in every gigabit per second.

Gbps to Kbps transfer rate: 1 gigabit per second equals 1,000,000kilobits per second — the standard bandwidth conversion rate used by this data transfer calculator.

Gigabit Per Second to Kilobit Per Second Conversion Examples

10 Gbps = 10,000,000 Kbps

50 Gbps = 50,000,000 Kbps

100 Gbps = 100,000,000 Kbps

500 Gbps = 500,000,000 Kbps

1,000 Gbps = 1,000,000,000 Kbps

Most data transfer rate units step by powers of ten: moving up the scale (bps → Kbps → Mbps → Gbps and beyond) means multiply by 1000, moving down means divide by 1000 — usually just a matter of shifting the decimal point. What's actually being counted underneath is bits: the binary digits, 0s and 1s, that make up every network signal.

What Is Gigabit Per Second (Gbps)? Definition and Uses

A gigabit per second is 1,000 megabits per second. Used for fiber internet and enterprise networking.

The gigabit per second is a bit-based bandwidth unit measuring data transfer speed, network bandwidth, or throughput capacity. Like the units used to measure file size, it's one of several data measurement units that scale using either decimal multiples of 1,000 (SI) or binary steps of 1,024 (IEC).

Common uses: Fiber internet, enterprise networks, data center connections, 10GbE

1 Gbps = 1 × 10⁹ bits per second .

The gigabit per second can be abbreviated as Gbps; for example, 1 gigabit per second can be written as 1 Gbps.

Don't confuse Gbps with GB/s (Gigabyte Per Second) — capitalization matters here. Gbps measures bits, GB/s measures bytes, and since 1 byte = 8 bits, 1 Gbps works out to just 0.125 GB/s using the same numeral.

What Is Kilobit Per Second (Kbps)? Definition and Uses

A kilobit per second is 1,000 bits per second. Common for dial-up and low-speed connections.

The kilobit per second is a bit-based bandwidth unit measuring data transfer speed, network bandwidth, or throughput capacity. Like the units used to measure file size, it's one of several data measurement units that scale using either decimal multiples of 1,000 (SI) or binary steps of 1,024 (IEC).

1 Kbps = 1,000 bits per second .

The kilobit per second can be abbreviated as Kbps; for example, 1 kilobit per second can be written as 1 Kbps.

Don't confuse Kbps with KB/s (Kilobyte Per Second) — capitalization matters here. Kbps measures bits, KB/s measures bytes, and since 1 byte = 8 bits, 1 Kbps works out to just 0.125 KB/s using the same numeral.
