The gigabit per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix giga (symbol G) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1.0 × 109 (1 billion, short scale), and therefore 1 gigabit per second = 1.0 × 109 bit per second = 1000000000 bit per second. The gigabit per second has the unit symbol Gbit/s.
The exbibit per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix exbi (symbol Ei) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 260, and therefore 1 exbibit per second = 260 bit per second = 1152921504606846976 bit per second. The exbibit per second has the unit symbol Eibit/s.
