How to convert Gigabits per second to Megabits per second
To convert gigabits per second to megabits per second, multiply by 1,000. One gigabit per second equals 1,000 Mbps, and one megabit per second equals 0.001 Gbps.
- Take the value in gigabits per second — for example 7.5 Gbps.
- Multiply by 1,000 (the number of megabits per second in one gigabit per second).
- 7.5 × 1,000 = 7,500 Mbps.
Shortcut: the factor is a power of ten, so just move the decimal point 3 places to the right.

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

The units
1,000,000,000 bits per second.
Used for: Fibre, Ethernet and USB.
1,000,000 bits per second.
Used for: Broadband and mobile speeds.
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.
