Conversion Formula
Mbit = MiB × 8.388608
About Mebibytes
A mebibyte (MiB) = 2²⁰ = 1,048,576 bytes (IEC 80000-13). Windows/older macOS report sizes in MiB but label them 'MB'. Linux malloc and kernel pages are power-of-2 aligned. Docker images: Alpine base 5 MiB; Ubuntu 72 MiB. Linux kernel bzImage 8-12 MiB. NVIDIA RTX 4090: 24 GiB GDDR6X in 2-GiB binary chunks. 1 MiB = 1,048,576 bytes = 1,024 KiB.
About Megabits
A megabit (Mbit) = 1,000,000 bits (SI). Everyday unit for broadband speeds: ADSL2+ up to 24 Mbit/s; VDSL2 up to 100 Mbit/s; GPON fibre 100-10,000 Mbit/s; 5G NR 100-400 Mbit/s. Streaming: Netflix 1080p = 5 Mbit/s; 4K HDR = 15-25 Mbit/s. Wi-Fi 7 = 46,120 Mbit/s theoretical. ISP 'Mbps' = megabits/s; 'MB/s' (megabytes) is 8× larger. 1 Mbit = 1,000,000 bits = 125,000 bytes.
