Unit Information

Bits per Second (bps)

The basic unit of data transfer rate, representing the number of bits transmitted per second.

1 bps = 0.001 kbps1 bps = 0.000001 Mbps1 bps = 0.125 Bps

Kilobits per Second (kbps)

A unit of data transfer rate equal to 1,000 bits per second, commonly used for measuring internet connection speeds.

1 kbps = 1,000 bps1 kbps = 0.001 Mbps1 kbps = 0.125 kBps

Common Applications
