1 gigabit per second equals 1,000 megabits per second. Enter a value below to convert instantly.

1 Gbit/s
1,000 Mbit/s

Multiply the number of gigabits per second by 1000 to get megabits per second. How this is calculated

Copy link puts your number after the #, which browsers never send to a server — but the link itself carries it, so anyone you send it to sees the value. Save keeps the unit pair in this browser only; clear it any time from your saved list.
