About these units
The oersted (Oe) is a specialist or regional unit of magnetic field strength, equal to 79.577472 amperes per meter.
The ampere per meter (A/m) is an SI base or derived unit of magnetic field strength.
Going the other way, 1 ampere per meter = 0.012566371 oersteds. Magnetic field strength, H, describes the magnetising force produced by a current, independent of the material it acts on. Magnet and core data sheets often use the CGS oersted, where 1 Oe is 1000/4π, about 79.58 A/m.
