Exabit vs. Megabit

Exabitnoun

(computing) A unit of information or storage equal to 1018 bits

Exabit

The exabit is a multiple of the unit bit for digital information or computer storage. The prefix exa (symbol E) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 1018 (1 quintillion, short scale), and therefore 1 exabit = 1018bits = 1000000000000000000bits = 1000 petabits.The exabit has the unit symbol Ebit or Eb.

Megabitnoun

(computing) 106 = 1,000,000 bits or 125,000 bytes (125 kilobytes).

Megabitnoun

(computing) 220 = 1,048,576 bits; a mebibit.

Megabitnoun

one million bits

Megabitnoun

a unit of data size or (when expressed per second) network speed, equal to one million or (strictly) 1,048,576 bits.

Megabit

The megabit is a multiple of the unit bit for digital information. The prefix mega (symbol M) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 106 (1 million), and therefore 1 megabit = 106bits = 1000000bits = 1000 kilobits.The megabit has the unit symbol Mbit.
