Convert Gbps to bps

Gigabits per second to bits per second. Enter a value to convert, or use the Gbps to bps chart further down the page.

1 Gbit/s = 1,000,000,000 bit/s

1 gigabit per second equals 1,000,000,000 bits per second. Going the other way, 1 bit per second = 1e-9 gigabits per second.

Note. Network speeds use decimal SI multiples: 1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bits per second. Because a byte is 8 bits, a 100 Mbps connection downloads at about 12.5 MB/s.

How to convert Gbps to bps

To convert gigabits per second to bits per second, multiply the gigabit per second value by 1000000000. You can also divide by 1e-9 to get the same answer.

bit/s = Gbit/s × 1000000000

Worked example

Convert 15 Gbit/s to bits per second:

15 Gbit/s = 15,000,000,000 bit/s
