Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between Gigabits per second and Megabytes per second.
What is a Gigabit per second (Gbps)?
A Gigabit per second is a unit used to measure data transfer rates and is based on "Decimal multiples of bits". The symbol for Gigabit per second is Gbps or Gb/s or Gbit/s. There are 0.008 Gigabits per second in a Megabyte per second.
What is a Megabyte per second (MBps)?
A Megabyte per second is a unit used to measure data transfer rates and is based on "Decimal multiples of bits". The symbol for Megabyte per second is MBps or MB/s. There are 125 Megabytes per second in a Gigabit per second.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from Gigabits per second to Megabytes per second is:
Megabytes per second = Gigabits per second ÷ 0.008
Conversion Example
Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from Gigabits per second to Megabytes per second (Gbps to MBps).
Gigabits per second to Megabytes per second Conversion Example
Task: Convert 5 Gigabits per second to Megabytes per second (show work) Formula: Gbps ÷ 0.008 = MBps Calculations: 5 Gbps ÷ 0.008 = 625 MBps Result: 5 Gbps is equal to 625 MBps
