kBps to bps Formula and Manual Conversion Steps
Kilobyte and Bit are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Kilobyte is a decimal unit where as Bit is one of the very basic digital unit. One Kilobyte is equal to 1000 bytes. There are 0.000125 Kilobytes in one Bit. - view the difference between both units
| Source Data Unit | Target Data Unit |
|---|---|
|
Kilobyte (kB)
Equal to 1000 bytes
(Decimal Unit) |
Bit (b)
Equal to 0 or 1
(Basic Unit) |
The formula of converting the Kilobytes Per Second to Bits Per Second is represented as follows :
Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Kilobytes Per Second (kBps) to Bits Per Second (bps). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.
Bits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x (8x1000)
Bits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 8000
Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 kBps to bps, will be processed as below.
- = 10 x (8x1000)
- = 10 x 8000
- = 80000
- i.e. 10 kBps is equal to 80,000 bps.
(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
You can use above formula and steps to convert Kilobytes Per Second to Bits Per Second using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.
