World Record Set for Data Transmission - Heartsound Audio

 


From Aston University, researchers have sent data at an amazing Rate of 402 Tb per second, using commercially available optic fiber. This beats their March 2024 record of 301 Tb or 301,000,000 megabits per second. If one were to compare the Internet connection speed of Netflix, with its 3 Mb/s Or higher for watching an HD movie, the speed is a mind blowing hundred million times faster.

The increased speed is due to the use of a wider spectrum, using six bands rather than four. This increases the capacity for data sharing. A huge worldwide team was assembled, led by the photonic network laboratory of the national Institute of information and communications technology,  in Tokyo. 

The team reached the goal by creating its first optical transmission system using six wavelength bands O,E, S, C, L and U Used in fiber optics. 

Aston University built a set of U-band Raman Amplifiers, which is the largest part of the wavelength spectrum. Conventional doped fiber amplifiers are not presently available from commercial sources. 

Optical fibers are small, tubular strands of glass that pass information using light Unlike regular copper cables that don’t carry data at such high speeds

Aston university’s  Dr. Robert Phillips reported “The newly developed technology is expected to make a significant contribution to expand the communication capacity of optical communication and infrastructure data services will rapidly increase demand.” 

The future will surely bring faster and more efficient data transfer!
