Well, after reading the heading of this article, the first thing that might come to your mind is that, is it really possible? The answer is Yes, thanks to a new technology developed jointly by KDDI R&D labs and Japan's National Institute of Information and Communication technology. They have together managed to make the most advanced fibre optic cable in the world that can transfer data up to 10-times faster than the existing cables. Currently, the cables can transfer upto 3TB/sec but this new technology will be able to achieve speeds of 30TB/sec. It means one can transfer the content of approx. 720 DVDs (2 hours each) in just 1 second. KDDI hopes to commercialize this technology and connect all the major cities of Japan with this cable.
