There are a few 4K test streams.  NASA TV is one:

I just piped it into ffmpeg and the NASA TV feed runs 10-15mbps, H.265
encoding at a resolution of 3840x2160.  So definitely possible to push
greater then 1080 video.

So is there a reason why we are not seeing widespread 1080p TV via
satellite? They seem to exist where a broadcaster also supports an IPTV
platform.
