Forget USB 3.0 -- try this at - 26 Terabits / sec transfer

Hi all

Forget all the current stuff -
Try one of THESE for fast data transfer

BBC News - Laser puts record data rate through fibre
Cheers

Sound good in theory, but one would have to wait to see what the cost would be, both in terms of PC compatibility and devices available.

With my luck the laser would take out my entire neighborhood and leave everything a smoking ruin! :roflmao:

 

[seekermeister]

With 300 lasers of various colors, it couldn't discriminate.

 

[Britton30]

Ohhh, well yeah using "orthogonal frequency division multiplexing", why didn't I think of that.
:roflmao:
It seems so simple now.

 

[Skulblaka]

... Hey, why don't we all get Quantum Computers, they're faster anyway.

 

[PwnFrnzy]

What they really invented is a tool for the next apocalypse.

The death ray is soon to be in place... evil laugh.....

26 TB a second

Is that faster than Warp speed?

Warp Speed Calculator

 

[mr pc]

They found video interlaced with the transmission...have we made Contact?

 

[Buddahfan]

I hadn't seen that one before.

Do you know if there is a web page or website that has them all available for viewing?

 

[Skulblaka]

Have they finally reached "Warp Factor 6"?

 

[Sam The Techie]

The problem then will be building storage devices that can meet the 26 terbits per second speeds

 

[MRValiant]

Man that is amazing.

 

[Ravi5kumar]

With my luck the laser would take out my entire neighborhood and leave everything a smoking ruin! :roflmao:

My neighborhood will also burn.

 

[Layback Bear]

With all those colored lights transferring that much data will the colored blind be able to use it?

 

[DaGooN]

Crazy stuff. i wonder?

Like seekermeister already said it will depends on the cost to make this technology happen. Also how many company's out there will pick up on this as well. depending on the cost to create the device will have a factor on how much it will cost to make a port on a laptop/desktop that you will use for this new Technology.
