In Japan, the wired Internet speed record has been broken. This is reported by the publication Interesting Engineering.

Information about the new record was revealed during the International Conference on Fiber-optic Communication. The report says that the engineers managed to accelerate the speed of the wired Internet to 319 terabits per second. The previous record was set in 2020, when specialists managed to achieve a speed of 178 terabits per second.

The indicator of more than 300 terabits per second was delivered on a fiber-optic network with a total length of more than three thousand kilometers. Japanese engineers had to use four cores, which are glass tubes placed in fibers that transmit data, instead of the usual standard core.

The report says that a new record was set on the existing infrastructure. In other words, to increase the speed of the Internet to the highest indicators, it is necessary to carry out a small modernization of the current infrastructure. "It will be much easier to integrate the new method into the existing infrastructure than other technological transformations of social information systems," the authors of the report noted.

The previous speed record was set by British scientists in August 2020. Scientists managed to set a record thanks to the expansion of the bandwidth of the fiber-optic network. According to experts, in theory, at a speed of 178 terabits per second, it would be possible to download the entire library of the Netflix online cinema in less than a second.
