Unit Information

Kilobyte (KB)

Definition

A kilobyte (symbol: KB) is a unit of digital information equal to 1,000 bytes. While some older operating systems use 'KB' to mean 1,024 bytes (a kibibyte), the SI standard defines it as exactly 1,000 bytes.

Current Use

Kilobytes are used to measure the size of very small files, such as simple text documents, small icons, or metadata within larger files.

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.
