Data Rate Calculator

You must have JavaScript enabled because this is no cgi-bin.
This should run with Netscape, too, however I do not use Netscape.

Type in the data rate with unit (first letter) or select it from the drop down list
and don't forget to select the time resolution with the radio buttons:

( Byte Kilo Mega Giga Tera Peta Exa Zetta Yotta )
: (Factor : Divisor. Factor 2 means display 2 days, Divisor 3 means volume is for 3 days)

`B=1`	`K=1024B`	`M=1024K`	`G=1024M`	`T=1024G`
`T=1024G`	`P=1024T`	`E=1024P`	`Z=1024E`	`Y=1024Z`

bit per second

byte per second
minute (60 seconds)
hour (60 minutes)
day (24 hours)
week (7 days)
month (30 days)
month (31 days)
season (91 days; 13 weeks)
season (92 days)
year (364 days; 52 weeks)
year (365 days)
leapyear (366 days)

`B=1`	`K=1000B`	`M=1000K`	`G=1000M`	`T=1000G`
`T=1000G`	`P=1000T`	`E=1000P`	`Z=1000E`	`Y=1000Z`

bit per second

Calculate how long a certain data volume takes to be transferred at above data rate & time resolution:
(unit 1024 1000 above) need
that is (1 year = 52 weeks)

Hints:

If you want to know how high is the data rate of 1.984 megabit if you measure the line 10 seconds instead of 1 second, then enter it as follows and look up "byte per second":
- "above": 1984 K
- Factor: 10
- Divisor: 1
- "below" select: bit per second
If you want to know the average data rate (per second) if you transfered 1 GB in 25 days, then enter it as follows and look up "byte per second":
- "above": 1 G
- Factor: 1
- Divisor: 25
- "below" select: days
