BT Lights Up World’s First 800Gbps Fibre Super-Channel

May 24, 2013 - 10:43 PM - by ekim68

Quote:

BT has successfully tested a long-distance 800Gbps “super-channel” on its core fibre network, capable of sending seven high definition DVDs in a single second.

Laboratory tests have reached 800Gbps before, but this is the first time it’s gone long distance, covering the 410km between BT’s Adastral Park research centre, near Ipswich in Suffolk, and the BT Tower in London, using equipment from network kit vendor Ciena. The surprising thing is that the test was successful on fibre which was previously not considered good enough to carry 10Gbps.

It’s hard to get tech support 400 kilometers away from the Earth, which is why Keith Chuvala of United Space Alliance, a NASA contractor deeply involved in Space Shuttle and International Space Station (ISS) operations, decided to migrate to Linux.

As leader of the Laptops and Network Integration Teams, Chuvala oversees the developers in charge of writing and integrating software for the Station’s “OpsLAN” – a network of laptops that provide the ISS crew with vital capabilities for day-to-day operations, from telling the astronauts where they are, to inventory control of the equipment used, to interfacing with the cameras that capture photos and videos.

YouTube: Over 100 hours of video uploaded every minute

May 20, 2013 - 11:49 AM - by ekim68

Quote:

Today, the YouTube blog announced that the video-sharing website now gets over 100 hours of content uploaded on the site every minute. That's just over four worth days of video. Doing the math, that means YouTube handles 6,000 hours of video uploads every hour, or 250 days worth of watching cute cat or Korean pop singer clips.

German Academics Set World Record In Wireless Data Transmission

May 21, 2013 - 11:37 AM - by ekim68

Quote:

Researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Solid State Physics (FIAF) and the Karlsruhe Institute for Technology (KIT) have managed to transmit data over the air at a speed of 40 Gbps – fast enough to send a full DVD in under a second.

The experimental device that has set a new world record for wireless connectivity broadcasts at ultra-high frequency of 240 GHz, and has been tested over a distance of one kilometre (0.62 miles).

Scientists involved in the project say that in the future, this kind of technology could close gaps between ultrafast fibre networks and help rural communities connect to the Internet.
