Japan has broken the world record for delivering an unbelievable ultra-fast networking speed by breaking the boundaries of data transmission on another level. 

The groundbreaking breakthrough suggests that a new internet speed is 4 million times faster than the current average usage of U.S. people at the moment.

Revival of the Ultra Dense Optical Fiber

The recent advancements show the certain improvements in the massive internet speed, likely from the past three decades.

In this connection, the prominent team of Japanese scientists at National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) has announced a new milestone achieved for the future of global digital world. 

They have attained a mind blowing 1.02 petabits per second (Pbps) of data transmission that’s 125,000 gigabytes every single second over a distance of 1,120 miles.

However, the results of new revelation were presented at the 48th Optical Fiber Communications Conference in San Francisco this year.

Moreover, in 2024 scientists have achieved internet speed of around 402 terabits, which was equivalent to 1.6 million times faster than the typical home broadband. 

The current study unveiled the recent development that includes a 19-core optical cable capable of transmission speeds of 1.02 petabits per second across more than 1,800 kilometers—that’s roughly 4 million times.

A giant leap towards 6G

The significant mark has open ways for futuristic technological breakthrough. 

According to experts it is a big step towards 6G networks, cloud computing and digital infrastructure across countries. The massive internet speed is capable to download all Netflix in one second. Japan has set the bars high for the next internet revolution.
