Can I somehow render a target bit rate over 50 mbps in AE 2023?

Hey! I am blessed with the task of reformatting pre existing Motion GFX clips (10s and 15s) to various aspect ratios. I'm about to render approved comps and there is a line in the spec page that reads "Content must be at 30 FPS, and bitrate between 60-120 Mbps." I thought it was a mistake, but then again never had to render out such large AR's before, so when I went to customize, I saw AE only goes up to a target bitrate of 50 Mbps...Am I reading this wrong? Or am I reading into it too much? some source refs that were sent to me are like 6 mbps, so I'm just confused. Thanks!

The Media Encoder and the Render Queue both have a maximum bit rate of 240 Mbps if you start with an HD comp and use the High Quality - Match Bit Rate settings. This conforms to the H.264 `level 6 standard. If you can't get the Media Encoder to go above 50, switch from a YouTube or Vimeo preset to the Match Source High Quality preset and modify from there. You should also be able to switch to Match Source in the Encoder settings and then increase the bit rate.

It's odd though, I cranked it to 120, but QT is still reading the render as 11.9 mbps..these particular aspect ratios I tested them with are just 1440 x540 and 720x540. But why wouldn't it show that I reached the target I chose for them?

What format? How are you rendering? What are the specific rendering standards?

Oh sorry, wrote in a rush..h264 (mp4) is one, and mov (pro res HQ). Rendering from AE using h264 match source preset as the base, then just customizing the bit rate...May just go pro res for all anyway. 30 fps...anything over 2K aspect ratio, they ask for only pro res. Thanks for your reply.
