How to Convert Exabytes to Petabits
To convert exabytes to petabits, multiply by 8 then adjust for scale. This converts byte-based storage measurements to bit-based units. See also: Petabits to Exabytes calculator.
EB is a byte-based unit used for measuring file sizes and storage capacity. Related: Exabytes to Yobibits converter.
Pb is a bit-based unit—multiply bytes by 8 to get bits. Check out our Mebibits to Petabits.
1 EB = 8,000 Pb (using SI decimal standard) — which means there are 8,000petabits in every exabyte.
EB to Pb Conversion Formula
// Convert EB to Pb
Pb = EB × 8,000
// Reverse: Convert Pb to EB
EB = Pb × 0.000125
EB to Pb Conversion Examples
100 EB = 800,000 Pb
256 EB = 2,048,000 Pb
500 EB = 4,000,000 Pb
1,000 EB = 8,000,000 Pb

What Is a Exabyte?
An exabyte is 1,000 petabytes or 10^18 bytes. Used to measure global internet traffic and massive data volumes. Try the EiB → YB.
The exabyte is a SI decimal unit of digital information storage. It uses base 1,000 following the SI (International System of Units) standard. Learn more: convert KB/s to ZiB/s.
Common uses: Global internet traffic, hyperscale data centers, worldwide digital data estimation You might also need: EB to MiB calculator.
1 EB = 8 × 10¹⁸ bits = 1 × 10¹⁸ bytes.
The exabyte can be abbreviated as EB; for example, 1 exabyte can be written as 1 EB.
What Is a Petabit?
A petabit is 1,000 terabits or 10^15 bits. Used for measuring massive network throughput. See also: GiB to Pb converter.
The petabit is a SI decimal bit unit of digital information storage. It uses base 1,000 following the SI (International System of Units) standard. Use our MiB to B.
Common uses: Internet exchange points, submarine cables, global network traffic Try the Tebibits Per Second in Bits Per Second.
1 Pb = 1 × 10¹⁵ bits = 125 × 10¹² bytes.
The petabit can be abbreviated as Pb; for example, 1 petabit can be written as 1 Pb.
