How to convert mebibytes per second to gigabits per second
A byte per second is 8 bits per second. Decimal Mbps and binary Mibit/s differ. These rates exclude protocol overhead; real transfer time also depends on throughput and latency.
Use x for the value in MiB/s, b for the intermediate value in bit/s, and y for the result in Gbit/s.
Gbit/s = MiB/s × 8388608 ÷ 1000000000
Worked examples
10 MiB/s ≈ 0.08388608 Gbit/s
Step 1: (10 × 8388608) ≈ 83886080 bit/s.
Step 2: 83886080 ÷ 1000000000 ≈ 0.08388608 Gbit/s.20 MiB/s ≈ 0.16777216 Gbit/s
Step 1: (20 × 8388608) ≈ 167772160 bit/s.
Step 2: 167772160 ÷ 1000000000 ≈ 0.16777216 Gbit/s.
Results are rounded to 12 significant digits. Converting units does not increase the precision of the original measurement. Very large or small values outside JavaScript’s finite numeric range are rejected.
About Mebibytes per second
Mebibytes per second (MiB/s) measures data transfer under the conventions above. The base value in bit/s is (x × 8388608), where x is the numerical value in MiB/s. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
About Gigabits per second
Gigabits per second (Gbit/s) measures data transfer under the conventions above. The base value in bit/s is (x × 1000000000), where x is the numerical value in Gbit/s. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
