How to convert Byte to Kilobit

Conversion factor and calculation steps from Byte (B) to Kilobit (kbit).

Conversion logic

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

1 B = 8 bit

1 kbit = 1000 bit

1 B × 8 = 8 bit

8 bit ÷ 1000 = 0.008 kbit
