I don't belong to the O365 product group, but did you look at this?=20

and a blog article to go along with that:

There's a bunch more than comes up under "office 365 bandwidth calculator" =
in your friendly neighborhood search engine.
The Exchange client model, for example, looks like it can give you basics f=
or a model based projection if you can characterize your base.
Thanks,

I have a customer that heavily uses Microsoft Office 365. It's hosted. All =
the data I see about usage per user appears theoretical. In that the formul=
as assume people are taking turns using the bandwidth as if there is a pati=
ent line of packets at the Internet gas pump. Nobody is clicking at the sam=
e time. We all know that is not the real world.
Does anyone have any experience with Office 365 hosted that can tell me the=
practical bandwidth allocation (NOT in KB per month, but in
megabits/sec) for 100 users (during normal work hours) needs to be availabl=
e ?
Thank You in advance,
