Didn't know you were on Quora. I will have to find you there.
I don't know if there's an authoritative answer on what triggers those
algorithms, but I've made inquiries to support and had a post unblocked.
I know they don't like links to specific products, and I suspect
downvotes are a trigger also.

Here is the answer (asking the max data capacity of a coax).
First, it depends on the size of the cables. Coax has a cut off
frequency that decreases with the diameter of the cable. Smaller
diameter cables can convey more info. Then there is the Shannon
equationsChannel capacity - Wikipedia
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_capacity>
So noise, transmitter power, receiver noise figure etc all have to be
taken into account.
But let’s consider a 1 inch coax. You might get 5 GHz through it. With
very high order modulation you might get 16 bits per hertz. So 80 GBps
in a lab setting may be possible.
But this does not even scratch the surface of what a fiber can do in a
much smaller size. There is no good reason to use coax if you want
high data rates over a distance. Fiber will always be better.
