How it works

To convert megabytes per second to megabits per second, multiply by 8, because each byte contains 8 bits.

The formula

Mbps = MB/s × 8

For KB/s, multiply by 8 to get Kbps, then divide by 1,000 to get Mbps. For GB/s, multiply by 8,000 to get Mbps.

Examples

Common conversions:

  • 1.25 MB/s = 10 Mbps
  • 6.25 MB/s = 50 Mbps
  • 12.5 MB/s = 100 Mbps
  • 62.5 MB/s = 500 Mbps
  • 125 MB/s = 1,000 Mbps (1 Gbps)
