Bell Labs Zips Past Google Fiber to Set Broadband Speed Record

XTankSlayerX

The prototype technology is called XG-FAST and is an extension of G.fast technology, a new broadband standard currently being finalized by the ITU. G.fast, which is expected to be commercially available in 2015, uses a frequency of 106MHz to deliver broadband speeds of up to 500Mbps over a distance of 100 meters.

 

I don't fully understand this, but Its cool I guess... Maybe our internet infrastructure is going to be treated like consoles?

I didn't realize they were the same company. I should have read more - I thought there was some confusion going on as to who broke the record.
