Bits and bytes
Lowercase b means bits; uppercase B means bytes. Eight bits equal one byte, so 100 Mbps corresponds to 12.5 MB/s before real-world overhead.

RESULT / EXPLAINED
Unit conversion without hidden binary/decimal assumptions.
Network-rate conversions use decimal SI units and keep the crucial bits-versus-bytes distinction explicit.
Decimal network units
Kbps, Mbps and Gbps use powers of 1,000. This matches normal network-rate labeling and avoids silently mixing them with KiB/MiB binary storage units.
Rate is not file completion time
A converted line rate is a mathematical equivalent. Real file-transfer throughput can be lower because of protocols, server limits and network conditions.
Use transfer tools for time
When the real question is “how long will this file take?”, feed the rate into Download/Upload Time Calculator and choose a realistic efficiency.
0BPS SHOWS MEASURED OR CALCULATED FACTS SEPARATELY FROM INTERPRETATION. WHERE A RESULT IS ADVISORY, ESTIMATED OR DESTINATION-SPECIFIC, THE LIMIT IS STATED IN THE TOOL.
Network rates normally use lowercase b for bits while file rates often use uppercase B for bytes.
0bps conversion tools use decimal networking units unless the interface explicitly labels a binary unit such as MiB.
