How it works
Enter a value, select Kilobit per second and Kilobyte per second, then MimiFile calculates the result instantly using the conversion model for this category.
Convert kilobits per second (kbps) to kilobytes per second (kB/s) when comparing network bandwidth, media bitrates and download speeds.
Enter a value, select Kilobit per second and Kilobyte per second, then MimiFile calculates the result instantly using the conversion model for this category.
Divide kbps by exactly 8 to get kB/s. Both units use decimal kilo prefixes; the factor comes from the exact relationship 1 byte = 8 bits.
Data rate uses a base-unit scale model.
kB/s = kbps ÷ 8. For example, 320 kbps = 40 kB/s and 8000 kbps = 1000 kB/s.
The unit conversion is exact, but real transfer throughput can be lower than a connection's advertised bitrate because of protocol overhead, congestion, server limits, storage speed and other bottlenecks.
Useful when a specification, map, recipe, technical document or device uses Kilobyte per second while your source value is in Kilobit per second.
