GigaBits
A gigabit is 1,000 megabits, or one billion bits. Gigabits are often used to describe network speeds and data transfer capabilities, especially in high-speed connections like Gigabit Ethernet or fiber-optic internet. A higher number of gigabits per second signifies faster data transfer, which is crucial for streaming, gaming, and downloading large files.
MegaBytes
A megabyte consists of 1,024 kilobytes, or approximately one million bytes. It is a common unit for measuring the size of larger files, such as digital photos, songs, or documents. The megabyte is used to provide a more comprehensible way of quantifying data that can easily be understood by everyday users of digital devices.
