How to convert Gibibyte per second to Gigabit per second

Conversion factor and calculation steps from Gibibyte per second (GiB/s) to Gigabit per second (Gbit/s).

Conversion logic

Each unit is defined via the base unit (bit per second (bit/s)). The value is first converted to the base unit, then to the selected unit.

1 GiB/s = 8589934592 bit/s

1 Gbit/s = 1000000000 bit/s

1 GiB/s × 8589934592 = 8589934592 bit/s

8589934592 bit/s ÷ 1000000000 = 8.589934592 Gbit/s
