🇯🇵 JAPAN SETS INTERNET SPEED WORLD RECORD, 1 MILLION GB PER SECOND A team of Japanese researchers achieved a world record internet speed of 1.02 petabits (1 million GB per second) over 1,800 km using a 19-core optical fiber. This technology, no thicker than existing fibers, can support future data demands from AI, VR, and 6G. The breakthrough solves the challenge of amplifying signals in all cores across two light bands without interference. Japan’s record capacity-distance product of 1.86 exabits per second-km sets a new milestone for ultra-high-speed, long-distance internet infrastructure. Source: Interesting Engineering
