Lithuanian term or phrase: Užsienio srauto dalinimo koef.
Laba diena,

verčiu vienos Lietuvos kompanijos šviesolaidinio interneto paslaugos pasiūlymą.
Tarp pasiūlymo parametrų yra minimas ***Užsienio srauto dalinimo koef.***?
Gal kas nors žino ***tikslų*** angliška (JAV) terminą?

Didelis ačiū,
Igoris.

Explanation:
Iš Wikipedijos:
In computer networking, the contention ratio is the ratio of the potential maximum demand to the actual bandwidth. The higher the contention ratio, the greater the number of users that may be trying to use the actual bandwidth at any one time and, therefore, the lower the effective bandwidth offered, especially at peak times.

Example sentence(s):
  • Contention ratio refers to how much of ISP bandwidth is shared between users.
  • If you have seen that a broadband provider has a contention ration of "50:1" and another broadband provider has a contention ratio of "20:1" and you don't know what this means or which one is best then it is quite simple.
