Kilobits per second to Bits per second
1 kbit/s = 1,000 bit/s. Edit either value to convert instantly.
Conversion formula
bit/s = kbit/s × (1,000) × (1)1 kbit/s = 1,000 bit/s
kilobit per second (kbit/s)
kilobit per second is a unit of data transfer rate: 1 kbit/s = 1,000 bit/s. The byte has 8 bits; decimal prefixes use powers of 1,000 and binary prefixes use powers of 1024.
