It's been too long and my math is failing me... In networks classes we used to have to calculate the bandwidth for a given string of characters...plain language text and it was difficult even then.
I don't think I could do a derivative or integral to save my neck now days.
How's your math?
How many simultaneous 20 Mbs connections running at capacity could fit into the 4 MHz occupied by a TV station?

Re: How many connections
There was a time when I might have had a clue on this -- I got pretty deep into data device interfaces -- but I bet that everything I knew then is wrong. New compression algorithms, new redundancy techniques, new multiplexing and encoding technology: they probably have changed the game significantly by now. But I bet that the network operators have a pretty precise idea what the answer is to that question.
