Wow, that IS fast! Scientists transfer 700 DVDs of data in a SINGLE SECOND | Mail Online: "A new speed record has been set for transferring data down a fibre-optic cable using a single laser.
Researchers at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany succeeded in sending 26 terabits of data - the equivalent of 700 DVDs - down an optical fibre in one second.
They used a 'fast Fourier transform' to separate more than 300 colours of light in a laser beam, each encoded with its own string of information, said the journal Nature Phonetics."
