Gigabit Per Second (Gbps) - Definition and Overview

Gbps unit of measurement used to express the rate at which data is transferred from one location to another in a data network.

When data transfer rates are expressed in Gigabit Per Second, it means that the amount of data being transferred is measured in terms of Gigabits over a period of one Second.

One Gigabit is equal to 10^9 or 1000^3 Bits. Gigabit is a decimal unit defined as per SI standard. 1 Gigabit = 1000 Megabits. The unit symbol for Gigabit is Gbit or Gb. Gigabit is not same as Gibibit (Gib) that contains 1024^3 bits. 1000 Gigabits = 1 Terabit (Tbit).

Megabyte Per Second (MBps) - Definition and Overview

MBps unit of measurement used to express the rate at which data is transferred from one location to another in a data network.

When data transfer rates are expressed in Megabyte Per Second, it means that the amount of data being transferred is measured in terms of Megabytes over a period of one Second.

One Megabyte is equal to 10^6 or 1000^2 Bytes. Megabyte is a decimal unit defined as per SI standard. 1 Megabyte = 1000 Kilobytes. The unit symbol for Megabyte is MB. Megabyte is not same as Mebibyte (MiB) that contains 1024^2 bytes. 1000 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte (GB).

How to Convert Gigabit to Megabyte?

1 Gigabit is equal to 125 Megabyte. To convert Gigabit to Megabyte, use this simple formula:

Megabyte = Gigabit x 125

So, just multiply the number of Gigabit by 125 to get equivalent value in Megabyte.

Example 1:

Convert 5 Gigabit to Megabyte
5 x 125 = 625 Megabyte

Example 2:

Convert 7.5 Gigabit to Megabyte
7.5 x 125 = 937.5 Megabyte
