How to Convert Kilobits Per Second to Gigabytes Per Second

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

To convert kilobits per second to gigabytes per second, divide by 8,000,000 (or multiply by 0.000000125). This conversion accounts for the 8:1 relationship between bits and bytes—network speeds are measured in bits, while file sizes use bytes.

Kbps is a bit-based bandwidth commonly used for Dial-up internet, audio streaming, VoIP calls. When you see your ISP advertise speeds in Kbps, this is the raw network bandwidth.

GB/s is what you actually experience when downloading files. Your browser, torrent client, or download manager shows speeds in GB/s because that's how fast data is being written to your storage. Related: Kilobits Per Second to Kilobytes Per Second.

1 Kbps = 0.000000125 GB/s — or equivalently, 1 GB/s = 8,000,000Kbps.

Kbps to GB/s transfer rate: 1 kilobit per second equals 0.000000125gigabytes per second — the standard bandwidth conversion rate used by this data transfer calculator.

Kilobit Per Second to Gigabyte Per Second Conversion Examples

10 Kbps = 0.00000125 GB/s

50 Kbps = 0.00000625 GB/s

100 Kbps = 0.0000125 GB/s

500 Kbps = 0.0000625 GB/s

1,000 Kbps = 0.000125 GB/s

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 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).

Common uses: Dial-up internet, audio streaming, VoIP calls See also: Kilobytes Per Second to Bytes Per Second.

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.
