"The fiber optic cable is made of pure glass drawn into a very thin strand, with a thickness comparable to that of a human hair but can transmit digitalised data through light pulses in milliseconds and in very high capacity, allowing more information to be transmitted. One such strand of optical fibre is capable of transmitting 25,000 gigabytes per second of information, which is about three million books per a second." Is it possible to do 25 TBytes per second in one fibre? or 200 Tbits per second? Really? On Thu, Jun 18, 2009 at 10:53 AM, Solomon Mburu <solo.mburu@gmail.com>wrote:
