Another unit of data transmission is the kibibyte per second (Kibyte/s or KiB/s) which is 1,024 bytes per second. This is not necessarily exactly one eighth of a Kibit/s because the bit rate may include framing bits (see kilobit per second).One kibibit per second should not be confused with one kilobit per second:
- 210 bit/s = 1,024 bit/s = 1 Kibit/s (one kibibit or one thousand twenty-four bits per second)
The unit is useful in serial datarates:

bitrate (sometimes written bit rate, data rate or as a variable R or fb) is the number of bits that are conveyed or processed per unit of time. Bit rate is synonymous to data rate and digital bandwidth.

kilobit per second (kbit/s or kb/s or kbps) is a unit of data transfer rate equal to 1,000 bits per second. It is sometimes mistakenly thought to mean 1,024 bits per second, using the binary meaning of the kilo- prefix, though this is incorrect.
