Upload Time Calculator
Estimate how long a file takes to upload, with a best-to-worst-case range.
Upload Time estimates how long a file takes to send at a given connection speed, with a best-to-worst-case range around the typical figure.
Worked examples
| File | Speed | Typical time |
|---|---|---|
| 5 GB | 100 Mbps | 6 min 40 s |
| 50 GB | 100 Mbps | 1 h 6 min 40 s |
What you enter
- File size: KB, MB, GB or TB
- Upload speed: Kbps, Mbps or Gbps
What you get
- Typical upload time, written out from seconds to days
- Best case and worst case (±15%)
- A warning when an upload will take more than a day
How CineMath works it out
- Time = file size in bits ÷ upload speed in bits per second (1 GB = 8,000 megabits)
CineMath Professional: CineMath Professional adds a built-in upload speed test that fills in your measured speed.
