In UDP, the frames need to fit the socket buffer, a kernel
configuration (see buffer-size property). In general though, what
people do is to "packetize" each frames into multiple parts, generally
the size of one MTU to avoid packets being split by the network. The
packetization is usually done in a way to remember the framing even
though each frame is on multiple packets. A good options is to use RTP
payloaders. That will let you then use an rtpjitterbuffer on the
receiving end, to compensate network jitter and to reorder the
packets. Later on with RTP, you could start using rtpbin and enable
feedback and retransmissions for better quality.

  ... ! rtpvrawpay ! udpsink ...

And receiver would look like:

  udpsrc caps=... ! rtpjitterbuffer latency=20 ! rtpvrawdepay ! ...

If you want to stream on slower network though, you may have to start
thinking about compressing your stream using CODECs, for that there is
many option, including JPEG, VP8/9, H264/5 (non-free), etc.
