Streaming bandwidth is the amount of data an internet connection can transmit in a given time, typically measured in megabits per second (Mbps). It determines how much video data can flow from a streaming server to viewers, and sufficient bandwidth keeps playback smooth and buffer-free.

Full HD 1080p streaming generally needs 5 to 8 Mbps per stream. By comparison, 720p needs about 3 to 5 Mbps, 480p needs 1.5 to 2.5 Mbps, and 4K can require 20 to 35 Mbps.

4K (2160p) streaming typically requires 20 to 35 Mbps per stream, while 2K (1440p) needs around 10 to 16 Mbps. Higher frame rates and bitrates push these requirements even higher.

The main factors are video resolution, frame rate, bitrate, the efficiency of the compression codec (such as H.264 or H.265), and the number of simultaneous streams. Higher values for any of these increase the total bandwidth required.

OTT means content delivered directly over the internet, and VOD is a core part of it: an on-demand content library combined with the flexibility of internet streaming.

The three main models are subscription VOD (SVOD) like Netflix, transactional VOD (TVOD) like movie rentals, and ad-supported VOD (AVOD) like YouTube.

SVOD charges a recurring fee for unlimited access to a content library, while TVOD charges per title, such as renting or buying a single movie.
