Japan reached 22.9 Pbps, 20 times more Internet traffic in one second
In Japan, researchers at the National Institute of Information Technology and Telecommunications achieved a speed of 22.9 Pbps. This corresponds to around twenty times the total global Internet traffic in one second, with a single optical fiber. Adopting optical fiber by the Japanese government in June 2022 aspired to cover 99.9% of all Japanese households by 2028. The country wants to be a major player in very high speed.
Fiber optic has many Internet connection advantages
Fiber optic offers much faster download and upload speeds than DSL or cable. This helps to browse the Internet, watch online videos and download large files without wasting much time. Compared to wired connections, optical fiber is not affected by electromagnetic interference. It has the effect of ensuring a more stable and reliable connection, even during peak hours. Fiber optic signals are difficult to intercept, making sensitive communications more secure. It has low latency; Response time between sending and receiving data is essential for real-time applications such as online gaming and video calls. Fiber optic cables are also resistant to wear, corrosion and weather, making them more durable than copper cables. Optical fiber is a tool that can support a large amount of data simultaneously. This device allows you to connect multiple devices at high speed without compromising speed.
Fiber optic enables faster and more reliable internet, making it an ideal choice for users when it comes.
