Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between bits per second and Kilobits per second.
What is a bit per second (bps)?
A bit per second is a unit used to measure data transfer rates and is based on "Decimal multiples of bits". The symbol for bit per second is bps or b/s or bit/s. There are 1,000 bits per second in a Kilobit per second.
What is a Kilobit per second (Kbps)?
A Kilobit per second is a unit used to measure data transfer rates and is based on "Decimal multiples of bits". The symbol for Kilobit per second is Kbps or kb/s or kbit/s. There are 0.001 Kilobits per second in a bit per second.
Conversion Formula
Let's take a closer look at the conversion formula so that you can do these conversions yourself with a calculator or with an old-fashioned pencil and paper.
The formula to convert from bits per second to Kilobits per second is:
Kilobits per second = bits per second ÷ 1,000
Conversion Example
Next, let's look at an example showing the work and calculations that are involved in converting from bits per second to Kilobits per second (bps to Kbps).
bits per second to Kilobits per second Conversion Example
Task: Convert 35,000 bits per second to Kilobits per second (show work) Formula: bps ÷ 1,000 = Kbps Calculations: 35,000 bps ÷ 1,000 = 35 Kbps Result: 35,000 bps is equal to 35 Kbps
