You need to use both Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords and
Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords...

Taking 11 GiB as an example:

For Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit:

(11 * 0x40000000) & 0xFFFFFFFF) = 0xC0000000
-or-
(11 * 1073741824) & 4294967295) = 3221225472

For Mikrotik-Xmit-Limit-Gigawords:

(11 * 0x40000000) >> 32 = 0x2
-or-
(11 * 1073741824) >> 32 = 2
