How to convert

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

1 Gbit/s = 125 MB/s

1 MB/s = 0.008 Gbit/s

To convert gigabit per second to megabyte per second, multiply by 125.

To convert megabyte per second to gigabit per second, multiply by 0.008.

Example: convert 10 Gbit/s to MB/s

10 × 125 = 1250 MB/s

About these units

Short background on the units used in this conversion.

Megabyte per Second (MB/s)

Megabyte per second (MB/s) equals 8×10⁶ bits per second — decimal byte rate, not to be confused with mebibyte per second.

MB/s appears in download managers and disk throughput benchmarks when reporting decimal megabytes.

Frequently asked questions

How many megabyte per seconds are in one gigabit per second?
One gigabit per second equals 125 megabyte per seconds. Multiply your gigabit per seconds value by 125 to convert to megabyte per seconds.
What is the conversion formula?
MB/s = Gbit/s × 125

The reverse is Gbit/s = MB/s × 0.008, using the same exact factors as this converter.
