Kilobyte per second to Kilobit per second Converter

How to convert kilobytes per second to kilobits per second?

To convert kilobytes per second to kilobits per second, you can use the following conversion factor: **1 Kbit/s = 0.125 KB/s**. Simply multiply by 8 to get the equivalent data rate in kilobits per second.

R_(Kbit/s) = R_(KB/s) × 8

Example

Convert 100 KB/s to kilobits per second:

R_(Kbit/s) = 100KB/s × 8 = 800Kbit/s

What is a Kilobyte per second?

A kilobyte per second (KB/s or KBps) equals 8,000 bits per second or 1,000 bytes per second. It is commonly used to measure download speeds for smaller files and slow internet connections.

What is a Kilobit per second?

A kilobit per second (Kbit/s or Kbps) equals 1,000 bits per second. It is commonly used to measure slower internet connections and audio streaming bitrates. For example, standard quality audio streaming typically requires 128 Kbit/s.
