What Are Kilobits per Second?

Kilobits per second are a measurement of data transfer.

Kilobits per second can be abbreviated as kbps; for example, 1 kilobit per second can be written as 1 kbps.

How Much Is a Kilobit per Second?

Kilobits per second are a measurement of the amount of data transferred in kilobits in one second. One kbps is equal to 1,000 bits per second.

How to Convert Kilobits per Second

To convert kilobits per second to another unit of data transfer, you need to multiply the value by a conversion factor. A conversion factor is a numerical value used to change the units of a measurement without changing the value.[1]

You can find the conversion factors for kilobits per second in the conversion table below.

Then, multiply the data transfer measurement by the conversion factor to find the equivalent value in the desired unit of measurement.

kilobits per second × conversion factor = result

You can also use a calculator, such as one of the converters below, for the conversion.
