Convert Gigabit per second to Bit per second
1 gigabit per second (Gbit/s) equals 1,000,000,000 bit per second (bit/s). Enter any value below to convert from Gbit/s to bit/s.
Formula
Gbit/s to bit/s conversion formula
Use this relationship for a direct conversion:
bit/s = Gbit/s x 1,000,000,000
Worked example
2 Gbit/s = 2,000,000,000 bit/s.
These are raw rates; protocol overhead, encoding, congestion, and storage performance affect observed transfer time.
