kBps to Gbps Formula and Manual Conversion Steps

Kilobyte and Gigabit are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Both are decimal units. One Kilobyte is equal to 1000 bytes. One Gigabit is equal to 1000^3 bits. There are 125,000 Kilobytes in one Gigabit. - view the difference between both units

The formula of converting the Kilobytes Per Second to Gigabits Per Second is represented as follows :

Gbps = kBps x 8 / 10002

Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Kilobytes Per Second (kBps) to Gigabits Per Second (Gbps). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.

FORMULA

Gigabits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 8 / 10002

STEP 1

Gigabits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 8 / (1000x1000)

STEP 2

Gigabits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 8 / 1000000

STEP 3

Gigabits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 0.000008

Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 kBps to Gbps, will be processed as below.

  1. = 10 x 8 / 10002
  2. = 10 x 8 / (1000x1000)
  3. = 10 x 8 / 1000000
  4. = 10 x 0.000008
  5. = 0.00008
  6. i.e. 10 kBps is equal to 0.00008 Gbps.

(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)

You can use above formula and steps to convert Kilobytes Per Second to Gigabits Per Second using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.

Conversion Units

Definition : Kilobyte

A Kilobyte (kB) is a decimal unit of digital information that is equal to 1000 bytes (or 8,000 bits) and commonly used to express the size of a file or the amount of memory used by a program. It is also used to express data transfer speeds and in the context of data storage and memory, the binary-based unit of kibibyte (KiB) is used instead.

Definition : Gigabit

A Gigabit (Gb or Gbit) is a decimal unit of digital information that is equal to 1,000,000,000 bits and it is commonly used to express data transfer speeds, such as the speed of an internet connection and to measure the size of a file. In the context of data storage and memory, the binary-based unit of gibibit (Gibit) is used instead.

Python Code for kBps to Gbps Conversion

You can use below code to convert any value in Kilobytes Per Second to Gigabits Per Second in Python.

kilobytesPerSecond = int(input("Enter Kilobytes Per Second: "))
gigabitsPerSecond = kilobytesPerSecond * 8 / (1000*1000)
print("{} Kilobytes Per Second = {} Gigabits Per Second".format(kilobytesPerSecond,gigabitsPerSecond))

The first line of code will prompt the user to enter the Kilobytes Per Second as an input. The value of Gigabits Per Second is calculated on the next line, and the code in third line will display the result.
