University scientists in Denmark as well as Swedengeneral photonic chip (able to use light for processing), has achieved impressive results in laboratories. Baud rate reached 1.84 petabits per second with only one fiber optic cable. The speed is enough to surpass the entire average internet bandwidth in just one second. For comparison, the highlighted average is about 1 petabits per second.
Dummy data were used to test the results; however, in the long term, this achievement could change the technology used on the Internet, both in terms of energy efficiency and speed. For comparison: 1 PB (petabyte) equals 1024 TB (Terabyte).
At present, the Internet represents approx. 10% of global electricity consumptionand this amount continues to grow. With technology of this level, this factor could be minimized. Leif Katsuo Oksenleve, one of the study’s lead researchers said:
The Internet is a huge consumer of energy. We need to be able to support the continued growth of the Internet, but we need to create new energy efficient technologies.

The operation is made possible by a laser beam that creates a rainbow of colors using equipment known as “frequency comb“. In this way, light arrays transmit data over fiber optic cables as we know them today, faster and with less power consumption.
Until now, there is no computer capable of sending, receiving and storing information at such a speed. Through the aforementioned dummy data, individual channels were used to analyze the maximum supported bandwidth. Subsequently, the channels were checked one by one to make sure that the received information was not distorted and corresponded to what was originally transmitted.
Until now, there is no computer capable of sending, receiving and storing information at such a speed.
No need to change cables optical fiber used. They are compatible even with these extreme numbers; however, the original transmission equipment will need to be upgraded. Despite the huge potential of this resource, the researchers said that it would take several more years to reach the possible level of popularization and transformation of the World Wide Web as we know it today.
Japanese team sets internet speed record of 319 Tbps
The previous record, recorded in August 2020, was 178 Tbps.
