Huawei tests 1TB broadband

PanARMENIAN.Net - Speed is everything when it comes to surfing the web, and Huawei has managed to produce something close to perfection, Digital Spy reports.

The company and Proximus have successfully completed a joint trial in which they were able to generate speeds of up to one terabit per second.

To put it into perspective, that's the equivalent of downloading 33 HD movies in a second.

And while the results may seem like a distant dream, Huawei says that it may be possible to build it into existing broadband networks.

"The purpose of the test was to determine whether this technology can be integrated into the core network, to anticipate the constant and growing customers demand for more bandwidth," it said in a blog post.

"This successful trial shows that this Huawei technology could evolve to 400Gbps and even 1Tbps super channels in the future."
