Convert Terabits to Exabits
Convert Terabits (Tbit) to Exabits (Ebit) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
Ebit = Tbit × 1.000000000e-6
About Terabits
A terabit (Tbit) = 10¹² bits (SI). Submarine cable capacity: 2Africa cable (2024) designed at 180 Tbit/s; MAREA (2017) at 160 Tbit/s. Data-centre interconnects use 400 Gbit/s (0.4 Tbit/s) per link. PCIe 6.0 ×16 delivers ≈0.5 Tbit/s aggregate. NVMe RAID arrays with 100+ PCIe 5.0 SSDs approach 1 Tbit/s aggregate sequential read. 1 Tbit = 10¹² bits = 125 GB.
About Exabits
An exabit (Ebit) = 10¹⁸ bits (SI). Global IP traffic ≈ 4.8 exabytes/month in 2022 = ≈38.4 Ebit/month. Netflix at peak consumes ≈15% of North American bandwidth, accumulating Ebits/year. All installed cross-Atlantic cable capacity ≈ 2,000 Tbit/s in 2024; 1 Ebit transits in ≈ 500 s at full utilisation. The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will generate ≈ 7,200 Ebit/year of reduced data. 1 Ebit = 10¹⁸ bits = 125 PB.
