Megabits (Mbit) to Terabits (Tbit) Conversion
Megabits
The megabit (Mbit) is a unit of digital information equal to exactly 1,000,000 bits (10⁶ bits). It is the standard unit for expressing internet connection speeds: a "100 Mbps" broadband connection transfers 100 million bits per second, equivalent to 12.5 megabytes (MB/s). This factor-of-8 difference between megabits and megabytes is a frequent source of consumer confusion when comparing marketed connection speeds against actual file download rates.
Terabits
The terabit (Tbit) is a unit of digital information equal to 1,000,000,000,000 bits (10¹² bits). It is used to express the capacity of high-speed backbone network links and submarine cables: major undersea cables connecting continents operate at capacities measured in terabits per second (Tbps). One terabit per second equals 125 gigabytes per second — the scale of internet exchange points and national backbone infrastructure.
