pure nitpick:
- lowercase b implies bits, which is (0|1).
- uppercase B implies Bytes, which is* 8 bits(1100 1001).
- "ps" stands for "per second" and is typically used for bits.
- "/s" stands for "per second" and is typically used for bytes.
- realistically, context suggests 5120 bit per seconds, which is rather slow.
- 5MB/s is 40Mbps, 8 times over 5Mbps, enough* for couple 4K H.265 streams.
- oskarkk 2y ago> realistically, context suggests 5120 bit per seconds, which is rather slow. How? "5 MBPS" must mean 5 Mb/s (megabits/s) or 5 MB/s (megabytes/s), and for internet speeds megabits are much more common, so it's rather 5 Mb/s ~ 5,242,880 bits per second, equal to ~0.6 megabytes per second or 5120 kilobits (not just bits) per second. Starlink can achieve speeds around 130 Mb/s (megabits/s), but (normal) Starlink surely doesn't achieve 130 MB/s (megabytes/s), so that would check out.
