Conversion Definitions
The following is a list of definitions relating to conversions between Kilobits per second and Bytes 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 0.008 Kilobits per second in a Byte per second.
What is a Byte per second (Bps)?
A Byte per second is a unit used to measure data transfer rates and is based on "Decimal multiples of Bytes". The symbol for Byte per second is Bps or B/s. There are 125 Bytes per second in a Kilobit 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 Kilobits per second to Bytes per second is:
Bytes per second = Kilobits per second ÷ 0.008
