Petabits (Pbit) to Terabits (Tbit) Conversion
Petabits
The petabit (Pbit) is a unit of digital information equal to 10¹⁵ bits. It is used to describe the aggregate capacity of large networks and data centre interconnects. Global internet traffic was estimated at several hundred exabits per month in 2022 — where one exabit equals 1,000 petabits. National telecommunications backbone networks and the largest internet exchange points are measured in petabits per second of total switching capacity.
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.
