Mbps to MB/s Converter
Convert megabits per second (Mbps) to megabytes per second (MB/s) instantly. Type a value — the result updates as you type, and the swap button converts the other way.
Mbps to MB/s formula
MB/s = Mbps ÷ 8
1 megabit per second = 0.125 megabytes per second · 1 megabyte per second = 8 megabits per second
To convert megabits per second to megabytes per second, divide the value by 8. For example, 100 Mbps:
MB/s = 100 ÷ 8MB/s = 12.5
So 100 Mbps = 12.5 MB/s.
Mental math shortcut
This conversion is exact, so there is no need to estimate: just divide by 8.

About the units
Megabits per second (Mbps)
Megabits per second is how internet and network speeds are advertised. There are 8 bits in a byte, so 100 Mbps moves at most 12.5 megabytes per second.
Megabytes per second (MB/s)
Megabytes per second is how browsers and download managers show transfer speed. 1 MB/s = 8 Mbps.
