Unit Information

Gigabit (Gb)

Definition

A gigabit (symbol: Gb) is a unit of digital information equal to 1,000,000,000 bits. One gigabit is equivalent to 1,000 megabits.

Current Use

Gigabits are commonly used in the context of high-speed networking, such as Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps) and fiber-optic internet connections.

Kilobit (Kb)

Definition

A kilobit (symbol: Kb) is a unit of digital information equal to 1,000 bits. It follows the SI decimal prefix 'kilo', which represents 10^3. It should not be confused with the kibibit (Kib), which is a binary unit equal to 1,024 bits.

Current Use

Kilobits are primarily used to measure low-speed data transfer rates, such as early dial-up modem speeds or low-bitrate audio streams (kbps).
