They’re saying that a “commodity NIC” doubles in bandwidth every 2 years, and extrapolating forward given that 1Gb was (supposedly) standard in 2003; the website in the post transcribed this incorrectly and put 1Gb in the description of the datapoint, but we can see from first principles that the figure is clearly that of a 200Gb link.
