Exabytes per second (EB/s)

Conversion Formula

EB/s = Zbit/s × 125

About Zettabits per second

Zettabit per second (Zbit/s) = 10²¹ bit/s (SI). Entirely theoretical. The entire global internet traffic in all of 2024 (≈40 Zbit) could be transferred in ≈40 seconds at 1 Zbit/s. The full electromagnetic spectrum (radio to gamma, ≈10³⁰ Hz bandwidth) at Shannon capacity still cannot sustain 1 Zbit/s with any known physical medium. 1 Zbit/s = 10²¹ bit/s = 125 EB/s.

About Exabytes per second

Exabyte per second (EB/s) = 10¹⁸ B/s (SI). Total global storage write-throughput of all data centres combined in 2024 ≈ 1 EB/s in aggregate - but no single system or link approaches this. A single-mode fibre C-band Shannon limit ≈ 15 Tbit/s; reaching 1 EB/s = 8 Ebit/s would need ≈ 500,000 such fibres. 1 EB/s = 10¹⁸ B/s = 8 Ebit/s.
