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 tebibit per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix tebi (symbol Ti) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 240, and therefore 1 tebibit per second = 240 bit per second = 1099511627776 bit per second. The tebibit per second has the unit symbol Tibit/s.
