The total amount of free network bandwidth an always free compute can use for a month or some period of time

Question

From the Oracle cloud infrastructure always free service document site, it says this:

All tenancies get two Always Free Compute virtual machine (VM) instances.

You must create the Always Free Compute instances in your home region.

Details of the Always Free Compute instance Shape:

VM.Standard.E2.1.Micro Processor: 1/8th of an OCPU with the ability to use additional CPU resources

Memory: 1 GB

Networking: Includes one VNIC with one public IP address and up to 480 Mbps network bandwidth

Operating System: Your choice of one of the following Always Free-eligible operating systems:

Oracle Linux (including Oracle Autonomous Linux) Canonical Ubuntu Linux CentOS Linux

The VNIC with one public IP address and up to 480 Mbps network bandwidth describes the network speed not the amount limit from my point of view. So the question is how much bandwidth one always free compute can use freely for a month or some peroid of time.
