Gigabyte Per Hour (GB/Hr) - Definition and Overview

GB/Hr 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 Gigabyte Per Hour, it means that the amount of data being transferred is measured in terms of Gigabytes over a period of one Hour.

One Gigabyte is equal to 10^9 or 1000^3 Bytes. Gigabyte is a decimal unit defined as per SI standard. 1 Gigabyte = 1000 Megabytes. The unit symbol for Gigabyte is GB. Gigabyte is not same as Gibibyte (GiB) that contains 1024^3 bytes. 1000 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte (TB).

Gigabit Per Hour (Gbit/Hr) - Definition and Overview

Gbit/Hr 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 Hour, it means that the amount of data being transferred is measured in terms of Gigabits over a period of one Hour.

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).

How to Convert Gigabyte to Gigabit?

1 Gigabyte is equal to 8 Gigabit. To convert Gigabyte to Gigabit, use this simple formula:

Gigabit = Gigabyte x 8

So, just multiply the number of Gigabyte by 8 to get equivalent value in Gigabit.

Example 1:

Convert 5 Gigabyte to Gigabit
5 x 8 = 40 Gigabit

Example 2:

Convert 7.5 Gigabyte to Gigabit
7.5 x 8 = 60 Gigabit
