Mbps to MB/s Converter

Convert network bandwidth in bits per second to file-transfer speed in bytes per second. Because one byte contains eight bits, 100 Mbps = 12.5 MB/s at the theoretical maximum.

Mbps vs MB/s

Mbps means megabits per second and is commonly used for internet connection speeds. MB/s means megabytes per second and is commonly used for file-transfer speeds. Divide Mbps by 8 to get the theoretical MB/s value.

Actual transfers are usually slower because of protocol overhead, latency, Wi-Fi conditions, storage performance, congestion and server limits.
