Default Scientists At Stanford Set Internet Speed Record


Now this is what i call BROADBAND!

The technical breakthrough set an Internet speed record too fast to be of use with present-day computers, but could open the way for scientists to share and ship massive databases around the world, researchers said.

In a recent trial, a team of scientists at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, California Institute of Technology, Dutch research institute NIKHES, and the University of Amsterdam sent the equivalent of four hours of DVD movies nearly 7,000 miles across fiber-optic lines in less than a minute.

The uncompressed data sped along at 923 megabits per second for 58 seconds from Sunnyvale, California, to Amsterdam via Chicago during the test.


With Technolgy like this in future we can be vitually connected to any media source around the world at anytime , vitualy instantaniouly.
