5 Gigabits per Second to Megabytes per Second

625 MB/s

5 Gbps = 625 MB/s

5 Gbps = 625 MB/s

To convert gigabits per second to megabytes per second, multiply the value by the conversion factor:

1 Gbps = 125 MB/s
5 Gbps × 125 = 625 MB/s

Reverse: 625 megabytes per second = 5 gigabits per second

gigabits per second (Gbps) megabytes per second (MB/s)
5 625
1 125
2 250
10 1250

gigabits per second (Gbps)

Gigabits per second (Gbps) is the frontier of consumer internet. 'Gigabit Internet' (1 Gbps) allows downloading entire movies in seconds. It is also the standard speed for modern LAN (Ethernet) ports and 5G cellular networks.

USB 3.0 transfers data at 5 Gbps.

Commonly used in: Fiber internet, 5G networks, Data center links, Thunderbolt ports, Internal networks (LAN).

megabytes per second (MB/s)

Megabytes per second (MB/s) is what you see when copying files on your computer. It is the practical measure of hard drive and SSD speed. A modern fast SSD can read at over 3,000 MB/s.

A typical USB 2.0 drive copies at 20-30 MB/s.

Commonly used in: File copying, Hard drive benchmarks, USB stick transfers, SD card speeds, Game loading.
