[Assume land-based communication with a spot half way around the world at the equator. Ignore additional distance due to cable routing. Ignore repeater and switching delays; consider only a speed-of-light delay of 5 .sec / km. The circumference of the globe at the equator is approx. 40000 km (we need to consider round-trip delay to keep the pipe full). 10 Gb/sec . 40000 km . 5 .sec / km . B / 8b = 250 MB]. There seem to be a lot of dots "." - were you perhaps using non-ascii characters that did not translate to ascii text? For example, I think the "5 .sec / km" should be "5 nsec / km" ?
