The petabyte per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix peta (symbol P) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1.0 × 1015 (1 quadrillion, short scale), and therefore 1 petabyte per second = 1.0 × 1015 byte per second = 1000000000000000 byte per second. The petabyte per second has the unit symbol PB/s.
The terabit per second is a multiple of the unit bit for Data Transfer Rate. The prefix tera (symbol T) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1.0 × 1012 (1 trillion, short scale), and therefore 1 terabit per second = 1.0 × 1012 bit per second = 1000000000000 bit per second. The terabit per second has the unit symbol Tbit/s.
