How to Convert Terabits Per Second to Gigabits Per Second

To convert terabits per second to gigabits per second, multiply by 1,000. Both units measure network bandwidth in bits per second—the difference is simply the scale. Learn more: Gigabits Per Second to Tbps.

Tbps: A terabit per second is 1,000 gigabits per second. Used for backbone networks and data center interconnects. Common uses include Backbone networks, submarine cables, data center fabrics, high-speed interconnects. Use our convert Tbps to Petabytes Per Second.

Gbps: A gigabit per second is 1,000 megabits per second. Used for fiber internet and enterprise networking. Typically used for Fiber internet, enterprise networks, data center connections, 10GbE. Learn more: Zebibits Per Second to Gbps calculator.

1 Tbps = 1,000 Gbps — which means there are 1,000gigabits per second in every terabit per second.

Tbps to Gbps Conversion Formula

// Convert Tbps to Gbps

Gbps = Tbps × 1,000

// Reverse: Convert Gbps to Tbps

Tbps = Gbps × 0.001

Tbps to Gbps Conversion Examples

10 Tbps = 10,000 Gbps

50 Tbps = 50,000 Gbps

100 Tbps = 100,000 Gbps

500 Tbps = 500,000 Gbps

1,000 Tbps = 1,000,000 Gbps

When to Convert Tbps to Gbps

Common scenario: Scaling between bandwidth measurements for network planning and speed comparisons. You might also need: Tbps → Zibps.

Other situations include ISP speed verification for checking if you're getting advertised speeds, network planning for sizing links and capacity, backup window calculations for estimating transfer times, and replication sizing for disaster recovery planning. Check out our KiB/s to Gbps.
