The official prefixes only go as high as 1024 or 280 bytes.

1000 Multiples

Bit = 1 Binary Digit

Byte = 8 Bit

Kilobyte = 103 bytes = 1000 bytes

Megabyte = 106 bytes = 1000 kilobytes

Gigabyte = 109 bytes = 1000 megabytes

Terabyte = 1012 bytes

Petabyte = 1015 bytes

Exabyte = 1018 bytes

Zettabyte = 1021 bytes

Yottabyte = 1024 bytes

1024 Multiples

For sequential numbers based on 1024 (210) instead of 1000 :

Bit = 1 Binary Digit

Byte = 8 Bit

Kibibyte (kilo-binary-bytes) = 210 byte = 1024 bytes

Megabyte = 220 bytes = 1024 kibibytes

Gibibyte = 230 bytes = 1024 mebibytes

Tebibyte = 240 bytes

Pebibyte = 250 bytes

Exbibyte = 260 bytes

Zebibyte = 270 bytes

Yobibyte = 280 bytes

What is the binary range in decimal of a byte?

Nobody knows what you are talking about, but if you mean what the biggest number is in a byte, it is 255 or 127. The former is only for unsigned, while the latter is the maximun if the byte is signed. If you mean how many numbers can be represented, it is 256 or 128. Again, the former is if it is unsigned and the latter is if it is signed.
