Kbps to GB per Day Converter
Turn any constant bitrate into the data it uses per hour, day, week and month. Ideal for streams, CCTV cameras, VoIP and bandwidth planning.
Convert Kbps to GB per Day
Enter a data rate and how many hours a day it runs. The converter calculates how many gigabytes it transfers, so you can size a data plan, storage drive or monthly bandwidth allowance.

How the Conversion Works
Key steps from kbps to gigabytes
Convert to Bits per Second
Multiply kbps by 1,000 to get bits per second. For Mbps use 1,000,000 and for Gbps use 1,000,000,000.
Multiply by Seconds
A full day has 86,400 seconds. If the connection only runs part of the day, multiply by hours × 3,600 instead.
Divide by 8 for Bytes
Network speeds use bits while data sizes use bytes. There are 8 bits in a byte, so divide the total bits by 8.
Divide to Reach Gigabytes
Divide by 1,000,000,000 for decimal GB, or by 1,073,741,824 for GiB. Providers normally use decimal GB.
Kbps to GB per Day Chart
Common bitrates converted to decimal GB for a connection running 24 hours a day. Typical uses are approximate and vary with the codec and settings.
| Bitrate | GB per Day | GB per Month (30 days) | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 64 kbps | 0.69 | 20.7 | Voice call or low-quality audio |
| 128 kbps | 1.38 | 41.5 | Standard music or radio stream |
| 256 kbps | 2.76 | 82.9 | High-quality music stream |
| 512 kbps | 5.53 | 165.9 | Low-resolution video or camera |
| 1,000 kbps (1 Mbps) | 10.80 | 324.0 | Standard-definition video |
| 2,000 kbps (2 Mbps) | 21.60 | 648.0 | HD video stream (720p) |
| 5,000 kbps (5 Mbps) | 54.00 | 1,620.0 | Full HD video (1080p) |
| 10,000 kbps (10 Mbps) | 108.00 | 3,240.0 | High-bitrate HD or entry-level 4K |
Kbps to GB Converter FAQ
Answers to the most frequently asked questions about converting kbps to GB per day.
Multiply the speed in kbps by 1,000 to get bits per second, multiply by 86,400 seconds in a day, divide by 8 to get bytes, then divide by 1,000,000,000 for decimal gigabytes. The shortcut is GB per day = kbps × 0.0108. For example, 1,000 kbps is 10.8 GB per day.
A constant 1 Mbps (1,000 kbps) transfers about 10.8 GB per day, which is roughly 324 GB over a 30-day month if it runs 24 hours a day.
A decimal gigabyte (GB) is 1,000,000,000 bytes, which is what internet providers and most data caps use. A gibibyte (GiB) is 1,073,741,824 bytes and is often what operating systems display. The same data shows as a slightly smaller number in GiB.
Network speeds are measured in bits per second, while storage and data caps use bytes. There are 8 bits in a byte, so the data transferred in bytes is one eighth of the number of bits.
No. It calculates the data for a constant bitrate. Real-world usage can be a little higher because of protocol overhead, or lower if the bitrate varies, so treat the result as a close estimate.
