Megabit vs. Kilobit

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

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

one million bits

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

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.

(computing) 1000 bits (binary digits)

1024 (210) bits

The kilobit is a multiple of the unit bit for digital information or computer storage. The prefix kilo- (symbol k) is defined in the International System of Units (SI) as a multiplier of 103 (1 thousand), and therefore, 1 kilobit = 103bits = 1000 bits.The kilobit has the unit symbol kbit or kb.
