How is burstable bandwidth calculated?
Optic Fusion bills for burstable bandwidth using the industry standard 95th percentile billing method. This calculation says that 95% of the time, your usage is at or below this amount. The 95th percentile is useful because it removes unusual or infrequent traffic spikes. This allows access to much higher bandwidth speeds for short periods of time, without having to pay for them unless usage is sustained.
