Megabits per second to megabytes per second

Convert megabits per second to megabytes per second, with the math shown step by step.

Megabytes per second
5 MB/s

40 Mbps = 5 MB/s

Also equals

How it works

MB/s = Mbps ÷ 8

One megabyte per second is exactly 8 megabits per second, so dividing by 8 turns megabits per second into megabytes per second. For example, 100 Mbps is 12.5 MB/s.

  1. Divide by 8 40 ÷ 8 = 5 MB/s
