How to convert

Exact conversion factors in both directions, plus a worked example.

1 MB/s = 8 Mbps

1 Mbps = 0.125 MB/s

To convert megabyte per second to megabit per second, multiply by 8.

To convert megabit per second to megabyte per second, multiply by 0.125.

Example: convert 10 MB/s to Mbps

10 × 8 = 80 Mbps

About these units

Short background on the units used in this conversion.

Megabyte per Second (MB/s)

Megabytes per second (MB/s) measures transfer speed in decimal millions of bytes per second — 1 MB/s equals 8 Mbps.

MB/s shows download progress bars, SSD read speeds, and file copy benchmarks.

Megabit per Second (Mbps)

Megabits per second (Mbps) measures data transfer speed in millions of bits each second — not bytes.

Mbps rates home broadband plans, Wi-Fi throughput, and video streaming quality recommendations.

Frequently asked questions

How many megabits per second are in one megabyte per second?
One megabyte per second equals 8 megabits per second. Multiply your megabytes per second value by 8 to convert to megabits per second.
What is the conversion formula?
Mbps = MB/s × 8

The reverse is MB/s = Mbps × 0.125, using the same exact factors as this converter.
Is this Megabyte per Second to Megabit per Second converter private?
Yes. All calculations run locally in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to a server.
