Exabits per second (Ebit/s)
Kilobytes per second (KB/s)

Conversion Formula

KB/s = Ebit/s × 125000000000000

About Exabits per second

Exabit per second (Ebit/s) = 10¹⁸ bit/s (SI). Theoretical: Shannon limit for a single-mode fibre over 50 THz optical bandwidth ≈ 100 Pbit/s - still ~10,000× below 1 Ebit/s. Reaching 1 Ebit/s would require ≈1 million parallel fibres each at 1 Pbit/s. Global internet backbone installed capacity in 2024 ≈ 5-10 Pbit/s. 1 Ebit/s = 10¹⁸ bit/s = 125 PB/s.

About Kilobytes per second

Kilobyte per second (KB/s) = 1,000 B/s = 8,000 bit/s (SI). Legacy modem throughput: 56 kbit/s dial-up ≈ 7 KB/s; ISDN 128 kbit/s = 16 KB/s. RS-232 at 115,200 baud (8N1) = 11.52 KB/s. CD-ROM 1× = 150 KB/s; 52× = 7,800 KB/s. Bluetooth 2.1 EDR ≈ 300 KB/s; USB 1.1 Full Speed = 1,500 KB/s. 1 KB/s = 1,000 B/s = 8 kbit/s.
