What Is a Gigabit (Gb)? Definition and Uses
A gigabit is 1,000 megabits or 1,000,000,000 bits. Used for high-speed network connections. Learn more: convert Gib to PiB.
The gigabit is a SI decimal bit unit of digital information storage. It uses base 1,000 following the SI (International System of Units) standard. Try the Gbps → EB/s.
Common uses: Fiber internet speeds, enterprise networking, 10GbE connections Try the Gigabits to Zebibytes.
1 Gb = 1 × 10⁹ bits = 125 × 10⁶ bytes.
The gigabit can be abbreviated as Gb; for example, 1 gigabit can be written as 1 Gb.
What Is a Mebibyte (MiB)? Definition and Uses
A mebibyte is 1,024 kibibytes or 1,048,576 bytes using the IEC binary standard. Check out our Yobibytes to Mebibytes converter.
The mebibyte is a IEC binary unit of digital information storage. It uses base 1,024 following the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) standard. See also: Megabits to Petabytes calculator.
Common uses: Linux file sizes, RAM specifications, software download sizes Try the convert Petabits Per Second to Petabytes Per Second.
1 MiB = 8 × 10⁶ bits = 1 × 10⁶ bytes.
The mebibyte can be abbreviated as MiB; for example, 1 mebibyte can be written as 1 MiB.

SI Decimal vs Binary: Why Two Different Standards?
When converting gigabits to mebibytes, different tools may give slightly different results. This is because there are two competing standards for measuring digital storage:
| Standard | Base | 1 KB equals | Used By |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI Decimal | 1000 | 1,000 bytes | Hard drive manufacturers, macOS, network speeds |
| Binary (IEC) | 1024 | 1,024 bytes | Windows, Linux (partially), RAM specifications |
Note: Our calculator defaults to SI decimal (base 1000) to match the box label. To match Windows, toggle the standard at the top of the calculator.
