Would be interesting for large businesses, but for consumer the kind of hardware you would have to run would be absurd. You

would have to run commercial grade hardware and an SSD array that would cost more then your car.

 

Come to think of it, for a small town having that much speed might be really cool. I can imagine running small schools and small

businesses off of a drop like that. Just have to have good engineers and network technicians plan it out properly. 

 

One could dream.

Even with half that speed, what hard drive will be able to write 64 GBPS.

One of the Virgin Media installers informed me 6 months ago at that there fiber network is currently able to deliver 1gb internet into homes over most of the UK and that the package is available just not advertised but comes with a hefty monthly charge

I don't think you guys understood this correctly. This is not meant to connect users to network, but more likely to connect the backbone network together, especially to areas without fiber.

PS: That range is INSANE. The power of the transmitter must be OVER 9000.

And yet I am stuck here with 600KBs down, way to increase the rich-poor divide of internet speeds in the UK.

Obviously it isn't commercial.  @ETRJ Who gives 176 down commercially in the UK? 

BT offer up to 330mbps. I dont know if they advertise it on their website though. I know for sure that they can/do offer it.

Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat's pretty insane. This makes me wonder how fast a fiber line can really go...

This is not a single strand of fibre.

 

For Multi-mode fibre you can get up to 10gbps at a length of 300 meters. The signal degrades in the fibre (even though mos tthink it cant) and starts to bounce off of the walls of the cable.

Single mode fibre can do 40gbps over hundreds of KM, but is incredibly expensive. It is what is used in sub-marine cables.

 

They would have used many, many cables to get these speeds.

 

They are used for backbones on their network. I doubt we will see speeds this fast at a consumer levle for 20 - 50 years.

I'm only getting 6.5 down and <1 up on SKY at the moment, and god the connection is shit, in the busy times, my ping doubles, and I can't even watch 1080p vids properly.

strange since sky don't have any traffic management unless you're on 'connect' in which case you can't complain.  also, i hope you're using your master socket and have tried different wireless channels if you're connecting wirelessly that is.

I'm on Sky Unlimited broadband. I'm using wired connection, and I do now that they don't have any of that, and yes I am using the master socket. Maybe I'm flagged or something because I swore at them once and they're punishing me... :D , (There was a line takeover and I lost broadband for 3 weeks and was really pissed off, because they were lying to me about activation dates n such... )

meh, it's not gonna be commercial in YEARS. I'd rather take the 300Mbps mobile internet in SK (which is actually coming by end of 2014)

That's about 140 GB/s...

Or if the world was perfect, 175 GB/s...

its terabits not gigabits so its over 1000GB'S hense 'terabits'

no, bits and bytes aren't the same thing. A bit is 8 bytes, so 1.4 TeraBITS/8 = 175 GigaBYTES per second.

The UK tested it first but as always Sweden will get it to the public first, then the US will get it like 10yrs later as they did with 1Gbit/s. ;)

They're sharing a drink they call loneliness, but it's better than drinkin' alone...
