Convert gigabytes/second to terabits/second
1 gigabyte/second = 0.007813 terabit/second
Conversion Process
This conversion uses Bit per Second as the base unit. We'll first convert gigabyte/second to Bit per Second, then convert from Bit per Second to terabit/second.
Step 1: Convert from gigabyte/second to Bit per Second
1 × 8589934592 = 8589934592
Result: 8589934592 Bit per Second
Step 2: Convert from Bit per Second to terabit/second
8589934592 × 9.09495e-13 = 0.007813
Result: 0.007813 terabit/second
Direct Conversion Factor
1 ÷ 128 = 0.007813
Direct conversion: 1 gigabyte/second = 0.007813 terabit/second
Frequently Asked Questions
How many terabits/second are in 1 gigabytes/second?
There are 0.007813 terabits/second in 1 gigabytes/second.
What is 1 gigabytes/second in terabits/second?
1 gigabytes/second is equal to 0.007813 terabits/second. To perform this conversion yourself using the convention, multiply 1 by 0.007813.
How to convert 1 gigabytes/second to terabits/second?
To convert 1 gigabytes/second to terabits/second using the convention, multiply 1 by 0.007813. This gives you 0.007813 terabits/second.
What is the formula to convert gigabytes/second to terabits/second?
The formula to convert from gigabytes/second to terabits/second using the convention is: terabits/second = gigabytes/second × 0.007813. Using this formula, 1 gigabytes/second equals 0.007813 terabits/second.
What is the difference between gigabytes/second and terabits/second?
The main difference between gigabytes/second and terabits/second is that 1 gigabytes/second equals 0.007813 terabits/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 gigabytes/second bigger than terabits/second?
terabit/second is larger than gigabyte/second. Specifically, using the convention, 1 gigabytes/second equals 0.007813 terabits/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.
