Catch is, the bw x delay product will kill you on these links if you run TCP sessions and you won't get anywhere near line rate.
[ snip ] Set TCP window size to about 1x to 2x bw*delay. The value will be a bit large for a "normal" server (can you say "mbuf exhaustion"?), but I ass-u-me that the OP's client needs a few fast streams, not a few fast streams and tons of slow ones. How many simultaneous TCP connections on what boxen?
