Megabytes per Second (MBps) Versus Kilobits per Second (kbps) - Comparison

Megabytes per Second and Kilobits per Second are units of digital information used to measure storage capacity and data transfer rate.

Both Megabytes per Second and Kilobits per Second are the "decimal" units. One Megabyte is equal to 1000^2 bytes. One Kilobit is equal to 1000 bits. There are 0.000125 Megabyte in one Kilobit. Find more details on below table.

Megabytes per Second (MBps) Kilobits per Second (kbps)
Megabytes per Second (MBps) is a unit of measurement for data transfer bandwidth. It measures the number of Megabytes that can be transferred in one Second. Kilobits per Second (kbps) is a unit of measurement for data transfer bandwidth. It measures the number of Kilobits that can be transferred in one Second.

Based on the provided diagram and steps outlined earlier, the formula for converting the Megabytes per Second (MBps) to Kilobits per Second (kbps) can be expressed as follows:

diamond CONVERSION FORMULA kbps = MBps x (8x1000)

Now, let's apply the aforementioned formula and explore the manual conversion process from Megabytes per Second (MBps) to Kilobits per Second (kbps). To streamline the calculation further, we can simplify the formula for added convenience.

FORMULA

Kilobits per Second = Megabytes per Second x (8x1000)

STEP 1

Kilobits per Second = Megabytes per Second x 8000

Example : By applying the previously mentioned formula and steps, the conversion from 1 Megabytes per Second (MBps) to Kilobits per Second (kbps) can be processed as outlined below.

  1. = 1 x (8x1000)
  2. = 1 x 8000
  3. = 8,000
  4. i.e. 1 MBps is equal to 8,000 kbps.

Note : Result rounded off to 40 decimal positions.

You can employ the formula and steps mentioned above to convert Megabytes per Second to Kilobits per Second using any of the programming language such as Java, Python, or Powershell.

Unit Definitions

What is Megabyte ?

A Megabyte (MB) is a decimal unit of digital information that is equal to 1,000,000 bytes (or 8,000,000 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 mebibyte (MiB) is used instead.
