Kilobits per Second to Gigabits per Second Converter
1 kilobit per second = 0.000001 gigabits per second
1 kilobit per second equals 0.000001 gigabits per second
How to convert kilobits per second to gigabits per second
A byte per second is eight bits per second. Decimal Mbps and MB/s use powers of 1000; MiB/s uses a binary prefix. These are equivalent nominal rates; protocol overhead and network conditions affect achieved file-transfer speed.
Gbit/s = kbit/s × 0.000001One kilobit per second is 0.000001 gigabits per second, so a single multiplication converts any value.
0.00001 Gbit/s = 10 × 0.000001Kilobits per second to gigabits per second conversion table

Sources and precision
Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
