Kilobyte per Second to Kilobit per Second (KB/s to Kbps)
Convert KB/s to Kbps — Data Transfer converter
One kilobyte per second equals 8 Kbps, so to convert kilobytes per second to kilobits per second you multiply the value by 8. A kilobyte per second is larger than a kilobit per second — going the other way, 1 Kbps = 0.125 KB/s. For example, 10 KB/s = 80 Kbps and 50 KB/s = 400 Kbps.
