The kibibit per second is a unit of data transfer rate, using the standard binary prefix kibi, which has the symbol Ki, meaning 210. The unit symbol of the kibibit per second is Kibit / s. 1 kibibit / s = 210 bits / s = 1,024 bits / s.
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.
