kBps to Mibps Formula and Manual Conversion Steps
Kilobyte and Mebibit are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate. Kilobyte is a decimal standard unit where as Mebibit is binary. One Kilobyte is equal to 1000 bytes. One Mebibit is equal to 1024^2 bits. There are 131.072 Kilobytes in one Mebibit. - view the difference between both units
| Source Data Unit | Target Data Unit |
|---|---|
|
Kilobyte (kB)
Equal to 1000 bytes
(Decimal Unit) |
Mebibit (Mibit)
Equal to 1024^2 bits
(Binary Unit) |
The formula of converting the Kilobytes Per Second to Mebibits Per Second is represented as follows :
Note : Here we are converting the units between different standards. The source unit Kilobyte is Decimal where as the target unit Mebibit is Binary. In such scenario, first we need to convert the source unit to the basic unit - Byte - multiply with 8x1000, and then convert to target unit by dividing with 1024^2 .
Now let us apply the above formula and see how to manually convert Kilobytes Per Second (kBps) to Mebibits Per Second (Mibps). We can further simplify the formula to ease the calculation.
Mebibits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x (8x1000) / 10242
Mebibits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x (8x1000) / (1024x1024)
Mebibits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 8000 / 1048576
Mebibits Per Second = Kilobytes Per Second x 0.00762939453125
Example : If we apply the above Formula and steps, conversion from 10 kBps to Mibps, will be processed as below.
- = 10 x (8x1000) / 10242
- = 10 x (8x1000) / (1024x1024)
- = 10 x 8000 / 1048576
- = 10 x 0.00762939453125
- = 0.0762939453125
- i.e. 10 kBps is equal to 0.0762939453125 Mibps.
(Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.)
You can use above formula and steps to convert Kilobytes Per Second to Mebibits Per Second using any of the programming language such as Java, Python or Powershell.
