The gigabit has the unit symbol Gbit or Gb.
Using the common byte size of 8 bits, 1 Gbit is equal to 125 megabytes (MB) or approximately 119 mebibytes (MiB).
The gigabit is closely related to the gibibit, a unit multiple derived from the binary prefix gibi (symbol Gi) of the same order of magnitude, which is equal to 2bits = 1073741824bits, or approximately 7% larger than the gigabit.
