How to convert Gigabits per second to Bits per second
To convert gigabits per second to bits per second, multiply by 1,000,000,000. One gigabit per second equals 1,000,000,000 bps, and one bit per second equals 1 × 10⁻⁹ Gbps.
- Take the value in gigabits per second — for example 7.5 Gbps.
- Multiply by 1,000,000,000 (the number of bits per second in one gigabit per second).
- 7.5 × 1,000,000,000 = 7,500,000,000 bps.
Shortcut: the factor is a power of ten, so just move the decimal point 9 places to the right.

About converting Gigabits per second to Bits per second
Gigabits per second (Gbps) and Bits per second (bps) are both units of data-transfer rate. The exact factor is 1 Gbps = 1,000,000,000 bps, so multiply by 1,000,000,000 to go from gigabits per second to bits per second (or divide to go back).
The conversion runs entirely in your browser. Need the reverse? Use the Bits per second to Gigabits per second converter, or the full unit converter for every unit at once.
Real-world data-transfer rate in gigabits per second and bits per second
| Example | Gigabits per second | Bits per second |

The units
1,000,000,000 bits per second.
Used for: Fibre, Ethernet and USB.
One bit per second.
Used for: Data transfer, serial links.
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.
