How to convert Bits per second to Gigabits per second
To convert bits per second to gigabits per second, multiply by 1 × 10⁻⁹. One bit per second equals 1 × 10⁻⁹ Gbps, and one gigabit per second equals 1,000,000,000 bps.
- Take the value in bits per second — for example 7.5 bps.
- Multiply by 1 × 10⁻⁹ (the number of gigabits per second in one bit per second).
- 7.5 × 1 × 10⁻⁹ = 7.5 × 10⁻⁹ Gbps.
Shortcut: the factor is a power of ten, so just move the decimal point 9 places to the left.

About converting Bits per second to Gigabits per second
Bits per second (bps) and Gigabits per second (Gbps) are both units of data-transfer rate. The exact factor is 1 bps = 1 × 10⁻⁹ Gbps, so multiply by 1 × 10⁻⁹ to go from bits per second to gigabits per second (or divide to go back).
The conversion runs entirely in your browser. Need the reverse? Use the Gigabits per second to Bits per second converter, or the full unit converter for every unit at once.
Real-world data-transfer rate in bits per second and gigabits per second
| Example | Bits per second | Gigabits per second |
|---|---|---|
| A Netflix Ultra HD stream | 15,000,000 bps | 0.015 Gbps |
| The FCC broadband benchmark (2024, download) | 100,000,000 bps | 0.1 Gbps |
| Gigabit Ethernet / fibre | 1,000,000,000 bps | 1 Gbps |

The units
One bit per second.
Used for: Data transfer, serial links.
1,000,000,000 bits per second.
Used for: Fibre, Ethernet and USB.
Network speeds use decimal prefixes: 1 kbps = 1,000 bits per second and 1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bits per second. Remember 8 bits = 1 byte when comparing with download sizes.
