How to convert gigabits per second to megabits per second
To convert gigabits per second to megabits per second, multiply the number of gigabits per second by 1000.
Formula
Mbit/s = Gbit/s × 1000
Examples
- 5 Gbit/s = 5 × 1000 = 5000 Mbit/s
- 25 Gbit/s = 25 × 1000 = 25000 Mbit/s
- 100 Gbit/s = 100 × 1000 = 100000 Mbit/s

Frequently asked questions
- How many megabits per second are in one gigabit per second?
- One gigabit per second is exactly 1000 megabits per second.
- How do I convert megabits per second to gigabits per second?
- To convert megabits per second to gigabits per second, multiply the number of megabits per second by 0.001. The formula is Gbit/s = Mbit/s × 0.001.
- Is this conversion exact?
- Yes. Both units have exact definitions and the factor 1000 is exact. Displayed results are only rounded when they have many decimal places.
- Which is larger, a gigabit per second or a megabit per second?
- A gigabit per second is 1000 times larger than a megabit per second. In other words, a megabit per second is exactly 1/1000 of a gigabit per second.
