# High-Bandwidth Proxies

## Getting Started

To start using our [**High Bandwidth Proxies** ](https://oxylabs.io/products/high-bandwidth-proxies)for video data and audio scraping, contact our sales team to receive your dedicated endpoint. Each customer gets a unique proxy endpoint configured for their specific needs. To directly integrate this solution with `yt_dlp` library, please refer to this page:

{% endcontent-ref %}

## Endpoint Configuration

After receiving your endpoint from the account management team, you'll get:

* A dedicated proxy endpoint
* Your username and password
* Port number (default: 60000)

## Making Requests

For a quick connection check, add `-test` parameter to the username.

### Setting a session for each download

To ensure the optimal success rate, high-bandwidth proxies come with automated load balancing during each session. The `-$((1 + RANDOM % 100000))`  parameter next to the username generates a random number as a session ID and assigns a different IP address for each download.&#x20;

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Command Line" %}

```bash
curl -x username-$((1 + RANDOM % 100000)):password@your-endpoint:60000 \

modified_username = f"{username}-{random_number}"

proxies = {
    "http": f"http://{modified_username}:{password}@{proxy}",
    "https": f"http://{modified_username}:{password}@{proxy}"
