I guess that is 5 Mb(it), not 5 MB(yte)?

I always work from home (or from my office which is just as "remote"
in regard to the customer as my home is). The access is through a
"remote desktop" that runs on Citrix servers at the customer.

This works over 100 Mb/s (or 60 Mb/s at my office).
I don't know if it would work over 5 Mb/s.
