How to convert megabits per second to bits 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 Mbit/s, b for the intermediate value in bit/s, and y for the result in bit/s.
bit/s = Mbit/s × 1000000
Worked examples
10 Mbit/s ≈ 10000000 bit/s
Step 1: (10 × 1000000) ≈ 10000000 bit/s.
Step 2: 10000000 ÷ 1 ≈ 10000000 bit/s.20 Mbit/s ≈ 20000000 bit/s
Step 1: (20 × 1000000) ≈ 20000000 bit/s.
Step 2: 20000000 ÷ 1 ≈ 20000000 bit/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 Megabits per second
Megabits per second (Mbit/s) measures data transfer under the conventions above. The base value in bit/s is (x × 1000000), where x is the numerical value in Mbit/s. Factors shown here are rounded for display; calculations use the stored factor.
About Bits per second
