Japanese researchers at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology have set a new world record internet speed
Using an optical fiber that is available commercially, the team established a data rate of 402 terabits per second – around 1.6 million times faster than the median average broadband speed in the US. NICT researchers have the ambition to eventually extend the transmission range to vast, trans-oceanic distances, but there will need to be some caution on the immediate outcome of the achievement. More research would be required, and a lot of resources, to replicate even a small portion of the breakthrough data transmission in the real world.
