Converting from Kilobit per second (kb/s) to Kilobyte per second (kB/s) | Data transfer

What is Kilobit per second (kb/s)

Kilobit per second (kb/s) is a unit of data transfer speed commonly used in networking and telecommunications. It represents the amount of data transferred in kilobits per second.

What is Kilobyte per second (kB/s)

Kilobyte per second (kB/s) is another unit of data transfer speed that indicates the amount of data transferred in kilobytes per second. Kilobyte is a larger unit compared to kilobit, with 1 kilobyte equal to 8 kilobits.

Conversion Formulas

The default conversion between kilobit per second (kb/s) and kilobyte per second (kB/s) is as follows:

• 1 kb/s = 0.125 kB/s
• 1 kB/s = 8 kb/s

For other conversions:

• 3 kb/s = 0.375 kB/s
• 3 kB/s = 24 kb/s
• 8 kb/s = 1 kB/s
• 8 kB/s = 64 kb/s
• 15 kb/s = 1.875 kB/s
• 15 kB/s = 120 kb/s

To convert from kilobits per second to kilobytes per second, you can use the formula: kb/s×0.125=kB/s

Examples

1. Convert 10 kb/s to kB/s.

10kb/s×0.125=1.25kB/s

2. Convert 5 kB/s to kb/s.

5kB/s×8=40kb/s

By understanding these conversion formulas, you can easily convert between kilobit per second and kilobyte per second to determine data transfer speeds accurately.
