About these units
Gigabit (Gb)
- Definition
- A gigabit (Gb) is 1,024 megabits, used for high-speed data rates.
- History
- Gigabit Ethernet standardised gigabit-per-second networking from 1999.
- Current use
- Gigabits per second describe fast fibre internet and data-center networking.
Kilobyte (KB)
- Definition
- A kilobyte (KB) is 1,024 bytes in the binary convention used by most operating systems.
- History
- Early computing adopted powers of two, so a "kilo" came to mean 1,024 rather than 1,000.
- Current use
- Kilobytes measure small files such as documents and configuration data.
