This graph shows the total bitrate of the stream over time.

The y-axis measures the bitrate level of the stream in Kb/s. 

:::hint{type="info"}
The network bitrate can be lower than the sum of elemental stream bitrates because if it's a zixi stream,  the network data is compressed, whereas, the elementary stream bitrate shows the uncompressed values.
