What is the difference between an exabit and an exabyte?

An exabit (Eb) is a bit-based unit equal to 10^18 bits, while an exabyte (10^18 bytes) is a byte-based unit representing 10^18 bytes. The former is used mainly for network traffic, the latter for storage capacity.

How do I convert exabits to exabytes?

Multiply the number of exabits by the conversion rate of 0.1441151881 to obtain the equivalent value in exabytes (10^18 bytes).

Why might the conversion between exabit and exabyte not be exact?

Because exabit measures bits and exabyte measures bytes (8 bits per byte), and binary equivalents like exbibit and exbibyte differ slightly, conversions are approximate and depend on context.

What Is This Tool?

This tool converts digital information values from exabit [Eb], a bit-based SI unit representing 10^18 bits, to exabyte (10^18 bytes), a byte-based decimal unit for extremely large data quantities. It helps translate network traffic metrics into storage capacity terms.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the value in exabit [Eb] you wish to convert
Select exabit [Eb] as the source unit and exabyte (10^18 bytes) as the target unit
Click the convert button to see the equivalent value in exabytes
Use the provided formula and conversion rate for manual calculations if needed

Key Features

Converts exabit (Eb) values into exabyte (10^18 bytes) units accurately based on SI decimal prefixes
Provides a straightforward formula and exact conversion rate to simplify calculations
Suitable for handling very large-scale digital data measurements and network traffic volumes
Browser-based and easy to use with clear input and output fields

Examples

5 Exabit [Eb] converts to 0.7205759405 Exabyte (10^18 bytes)
10 Exabit [Eb] converts to 1.441151881 Exabyte (10^18 bytes)

Common Use Cases

Quantifying aggregated network traffic at global or regional levels in exabits per month
Describing total data storage capacity in hyperscale data centers and national archives
Reporting large-scale data volumes like annual internet traffic or cloud provider transmission
Estimating data generation quantities in market research and industry reports

Tips & Best Practices

Always confirm whether values are bit-based or byte-based before converting
Use this tool to translate network throughput metrics into storage capacity units accurately
Understand the distinct contexts of network data (exabit) vs. storage data (exabyte) to avoid confusion
Refer to the provided conversion rate and formula for precise calculations

Limitations

The conversion assumes 8 bits per byte, which may vary with binary-based units like exbibit or exbibyte
Exabit and exabyte represent different measurement contexts (network throughput vs. storage capacity)
Accuracy depends on understanding unit context and correct application of the conversion rate
