Megabits per second to Kilobits per second
Megabits per second to Kilobits per second: 1 Megabits per second equals 1000 Kilobits per second. One byte is 8 bits. Bit and byte rates use decimal SI prefixes (1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bits per second, so 8 Mbps = 1 MB/s); MiB/s is binary, 1,048,576 bytes per second. Internet plans are quoted in bits per second; file downloads are usually shown in bytes per second.
