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.
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.
