How to convert Kilobits per second to Gigabits per second
To convert kilobits per second to gigabits per second, multiply by 0.000001. One kilobit per second equals 0.000001 Gbps, and one gigabit per second equals 1,000,000 kbps.
- Take the value in kilobits per second — for example 7.5 kbps.
- Multiply by 0.000001 (the number of gigabits per second in one kilobit per second).
- 7.5 × 0.000001 = 0.0000075 Gbps.
Shortcut: the factor is a power of ten, so just move the decimal point 6 places to the left.

The units
1,000 bits per second.
Used for: Audio bitrates and slow connections.
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.
