Convert Gigabytes to bits
1 gigabyte = 8,000,000,000 bits · b = GB × 8,000,000,000
When you need this conversion
This conversion goes from gigabytes, used for storage capacity and mobile data plans, to bits, the unit for network speeds and data rates. Both measure the same physical quantity, so the conversion is exact — the difference is which unit your source, tool, or region happens to use.
