Bandwidth Converter — Mbps, MB/s & Gbps
Convert between bits per second and bytes per second across decimal (MB/s) and binary (MiB/s) prefixes.
—
How this conversion works. Every rate is converted through bits per second; byte units multiply by exactly 8, and binary prefixes use exact powers of two per IEC/SI prefix rules in the BIPM SI Brochure.
How to use

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert megabit per second to megabyte per second?
1 megabit per second = 0.125 megabyte per second. Choose "Megabit per second (Mbit/s)" as From and "Megabyte per second (MB/s)" as To, type a value, and the result updates instantly.
Why does my 100 Mbps plan download at 12 MB/s?
ISPs sell megabits; download managers show megabytes. 100 Mbps ÷ 8 = 12.5 MB/s — the numbers agree, the units differ.
What is the difference between MB/s and MiB/s?
MB/s uses decimal megabytes (10⁶ bytes); MiB/s uses binary mebibytes (2²⁰ = 1,048,576 bytes). 1 MiB/s ≈ 1.049 MB/s — tools like task managers often display MiB/s.
Is my data sent to a server?
No. Conversions run entirely in your browser using fixed factors — nothing is uploaded or logged.
