How to convert gigabit per second to byte per second

Enter your data transfer rate in gigabit per second and see the result in byte per second instantly. Key reference points: a 100 Mbps connection downloads at about 12.5 MB/s, a 1 Gbps fiber line transfers 125 MB/s, and the difference between megabits (Mb) and megabytes (MB) is a factor of 8.

Gigabits per second to bytes per second conversion is critical for storage engineers matching network throughput to disk write speeds. A 10 Gbps NIC delivers 1.25 billion bytes per second, which must be matched by storage IOPS.

Frequently asked questions

1 gigabit per second equals 125 byte per second.

Multiply by 125. For example, 5 Gbps = 625 B/s.

A typical SATA SSD writes at about 500 MB/s (4 Gbps) so it cannot fully saturate a 10 Gbps link, but an NVMe SSD at 3500 MB/s (28 Gbps) can.

1 byte per second equals 0.000000008 gigabit per second.

100 gigabit per second equals 125 byte per second.
