But what does this actually mean? Again there you could look at the sum 
of ISL capacities (3 x 100 Gb/s where installed) plus beam capacities 
(version dependent), but that doesn't necessarily mean that the 
satellite can pump between them at full barrel.

Defining a total capacity isn't all that easy when you think of it.
