How to use it
- Type the value in the terabytes per second box.
- Read the result in terabits per second as you type, and pick the precision you need.
- Swap the direction to convert back, or copy the result.
How it is calculated
Tbps = TB/s × 8
Multiply the value in terabytes per second by 8 to get terabits per second.
Example
To convert 25 TB/s to terabits per second: 25 × 8 = 200 Tbps.

About the units
- Terabyte per second
- Equal to 10^12 bytes per second, which is exactly 8 terabits per second. Seen in graphics card memory bandwidth.
- Terabit per second
- Equal to exactly 10^12 bits per second, used for undersea cable and data center capacity.
Limits and caveats
- Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
- Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.
Questions about this tool
How many terabits per second are in one terabyte per second?
1 TB/s = 8 Tbps exactly.
How do I convert terabytes per second to terabits per second?
Use Tbps = TB/s × 8. For example, 25 TB/s = 200 Tbps.
How many terabytes per second are in one terabit per second?
1 Tbps = 0.125 TB/s.
Why is my download slower than my plan speed?
Plans are sold in megabits per second while download tools show megabytes per second, so divide by 8: a 100 Mbps plan tops out at 12.5 MB/s in theory. Network protocol overhead takes a little more.
How long does a 1 GB file take at 100 Mbps?
1 GB is 8000 megabits, and 8000 ÷ 100 = 80 seconds under ideal conditions. Real transfers are usually a little slower.
