How to Convert Kilobits Per Second to Bits Per Second
To convert kilobits per second to bits per second, multiply by 1,000. Both units measure network bandwidth in bits per second—the difference is simply the scale. Related: Bits Per Second to Kilobits Per Second.
Kbps: A kilobit per second is 1,000 bits per second. Common for dial-up and low-speed connections. Common uses include Dial-up internet, audio streaming, VoIP calls. Learn more: Kilobits Per Second to Yottabits Per Second converter.
bps: The fundamental unit of data transfer rate, representing one bit transmitted per second. Typically used for Serial communications, legacy modems, low-speed sensors. Check out our Pebibytes Per Second to Bits Per Second calculator.
1 Kbps = 1,000 bps — which means there are 1,000bits per second in every kilobit per second.
Kbps to bps Conversion Formula
// Convert Kbps to bps
bps = Kbps × 1,000
// Reverse: Convert bps to Kbps
Kbps = bps × 0.001
