All values are rounded to the nearest significant figure for display purposes.

Conversion Process

This conversion uses Bit per Second as the base unit. We'll first convert byte/second to Bit per Second, then convert from Bit per Second to bit/second.

Step 1: Convert from byte/second to Bit per Second

4990 × 8 = 39920

Result: 39920 Bit per Second

Step 2: Convert from Bit per Second to bit/second

39920 × 1 = 39920

Result: 39920 bit/second

Direct Conversion Factor

4990 × 8 = 39920

Direct conversion: 4990 byte/second = 39920 bit/second

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How many bits/second are in 4990 bytes/second?

    There are 39920 bits/second in 4990 bytes/second.

  • What is 4990 bytes/second in bits/second?

    4990 bytes/second is equal to 39920 bits/second. To perform this conversion yourself using the convention, multiply 4990 by 8.

  • How to convert 4990 bytes/second to bits/second?

    To convert 4990 bytes/second to bits/second using the convention, multiply 4990 by 8. This gives you 39920 bits/second.

  • What is the formula to convert bytes/second to bits/second?

    The formula to convert from bytes/second to bits/second using the convention is: bits/second = bytes/second × 8. Using this formula, 4990 bytes/second equals 39920 bits/second.

  • What is the difference between bytes/second and bits/second?

    The main difference between bytes/second and bits/second is that 1 bytes/second equals 8 bits/second using the convention. Note that data storage units commonly use two conventions: the decimal (SI) based on powers of 1000 (kB, MB, GB, etc.) and the binary (IEC) based on powers of 1024 (KiB, MiB, GiB, etc.). This calculator uses the convention.

  • Is bytes/second bigger than bits/second?

    byte/second is larger than bit/second. Specifically, using the convention, 1 bytes/second equals 8 bits/second.

  • Why is there confusion between KB and KiB, MB and MiB, etc.?

    Historically, "kilobyte" (KB) was often used informally to mean 1024 bytes (2^10). However, the SI prefix "kilo" officially means 1000 (10^3). This led to confusion. The IEC introduced binary prefixes like kibibyte (KiB) specifically for 1024 bytes, mebibyte (MiB) for 1024 KiB, etc., to provide clarity. SI prefixes (kB, MB, GB) are now correctly used for powers of 1000, while IEC prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB) are used for powers of 1024.

  • What is the difference between bits and bytes?

    A bit is the smallest unit of data, representing a binary value of either 0 or 1. A byte is a common unit of digital information that consists of 8 bits. Data storage capacity is typically measured in bytes and their larger multiples.
