A new optical technology is being tested in japan, The technology is capable of reaching speeds of 30 Tbps . The trial has been conducted by KDDI R&D labs with National Institute of Information and Communication Technology (NICT) in japan. Tested using the technology called OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex).
Well 30 Tbps is aproximately equivalent to 32 billion kilobites per second. At this rate, per second of data that can be sent to reach 3.9 million MB, or nearly 1000 pieces of DVD movies per second. testing was conducted at a distance of 240 kilometers, which means not jut testing at close range. KDDI plans to commercialize this technology in 2012.
