View the petabit per second data unit pageHow to Convert Gigabytes Per Second to Petabits Per Second
To convert gigabytes per second to petabits per second, multiply by 0.000008. This conversion translates actual file transfer speeds (bytes) to network bandwidth (bits) by accounting for the 8:1 bit-to-byte ratio.
GB/s represents your actual download or transfer speed—what you see in your browser or file manager when copying files.
Pbps is the equivalent network bandwidth. Use this when comparing against ISP plans, sizing network links, or calculating replication bandwidth requirements. Related: Gigabytes Per Second to Exabits Per Second.

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 Gigabyte Per Second (GB/s)? Definition and Uses
A gigabyte per second is 1,000 megabytes per second. Used for NVMe SSDs and high-speed storage.
The gigabyte per second is a byte-based throughput 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: NVMe SSD speeds, PCIe bandwidth, high-performance computing, GPU memory
1 GB/s = 8 × 10⁹ bits per second .
The gigabyte per second can be abbreviated as GB/s; for example, 1 gigabyte per second can be written as 1 GB/s.

What Is Petabit Per Second (Pbps)? Definition and Uses
A petabit per second is 1,000 terabits per second. Used for internet exchange points and submarine cable capacity.
The petabit 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: Internet exchange points, submarine cables, global backbone networks, hyperscale interconnects
1 Pbps = 1 × 10¹⁵ bits per second .
The petabit per second can be abbreviated as Pbps; for example, 1 petabit per second can be written as 1 Pbps.
Don't confuse Pbps with PB/s (Petabyte Per Second) — capitalization matters here. Pbps measures bits, PB/s measures bytes, and since 1 byte = 8 bits, 1 Pbps works out to just 0.125 PB/s using the same numeral.
