Their new network transmits 1.2 terabits per second. That's over 1200 gigabits, per second. At this speed, the network will be able to send 150 4K movies in less than a second. Furthermore, it can send all of Netflix's global content

This is moat likely a core/main/back bone switch that feeds many smaller switches. Its not outside the norm, we're seeing 400gb and 800gb switches that are easily able to push that much bandwidth out a single port. 1.2tb or 1.6tb switches are the next logical step. You'll only find these switches in massive datacenters or for server clusters like for AI or high performance computing
