Bytes to Gigabits

Convert bytes (B) to gigabits (Gbit). Type in either box; the other updates as you go.

⇄

1 B = 8 × 10⁻⁹ Gbit

1 byte equals8 × 10⁻⁹ Gbit
1 gigabit equals125,000,000 B
FormulaGbit = B × 8 × 10⁻⁹

How to convert bytes to gigabits

To convert bytes to gigabits, multiply the number of bytes by 8 × 10⁻⁹.

Gbit = B × 8 × 10⁻⁹

Example

Convert 5,000,000 bytes to gigabits:

5,000,000 B × 8 × 10⁻⁹ = 0.04 Gbit
