Let me try to summarize what you want:
1. You have a good upload speed, but the Jellyfin server's hardware has poor performance.
2. You want to utilize the upload speed, but when transcoding media that cannot be played directly and needs to be transcoded, your server cannot keep up with the high bitrate.
3. Now, you want a feature to throttle the transcoding bitrate only while keeping the network speed bitrate unaffected.
If you are not using hardware transcoding of any kind, you can set the CRF value to an extreme high value (like 50) and see if the makes the situation better.
You can also try to change the Encoding Preset to ultrafast.
