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 yobibit per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix yobi (symbol Yi) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 280, and therefore 1 yobibit per second = 1080 bit per second = 1208925819614629174706176 bit per second. The yobibit per second has the unit symbol Yibit/s.
