How to Convert Gigabits to Megabits

"Gigabit (Gb) to Megabit (Mb) Diagram" — click any bar to view its data unit page, or set it as source/target.

To convert gigabits to megabits, multiply by 1,000. This gives you the equivalent storage size in the target unit.

Gb: A gigabit is 1,000 megabits or 1,000,000,000 bits. Used for high-speed network connections.

Mb: A megabit is 1,000 kilobits or 1,000,000 bits. Standard unit for internet connection speeds. Related: Zettabytes to Exabytes.

1 Gb = 1,000 Mb (using SI decimal standard) — which means there are 1,000megabits in every gigabit.

Gb to Mb conversion rate: 1 gigabit equals 1,000megabits — the standard gigabit to megabit data storage conversion used by this calculator.
