The petabit is a multiple of the unit bit for digital information or computer storage. The prefix peta (symbol P) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1015 (1 quadrillion, short scale), and therefore 1 petabit = 1015 bits = 1 000 000 000 000 000 bits = 1000 terabits. The petabit has the unit symbol Pbit or Pb.
The gibibit is a multiple of the bit, a unit of information, prefixed by the standards-based multiplier gibi (symbol Gi), a binary prefix meaning 230. The unit symbol of the gibibit is Gibit. 1 gibibit = 230 bits = 1073741824 bits = 1,024 mebibits.
