To convert petabits per second to zettabytes 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.
Pbps is a bit-based bandwidth commonly used for Internet exchange points, submarine cables, global backbone networks, hyperscale interconnects. When you see your ISP advertise speeds in Pbps, this is the raw network bandwidth.
ZB/s is what you actually experience when downloading files. Your browser, torrent client, or download manager shows speeds in ZB/s because that's how fast data is being written to your storage. Related: Petabits Per Second to Yottabytes 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 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 See also: Petabits Per Second to Exabytes Per Second.
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.
