Alcatel-Lucent and BT say they have achieved the fastest real-world fiber speeds of up to 1.4Tb/s with a spectral efficiency of 5.7 bits per second per Hertz on existing core fiber connections.
The two firms say this is probably the fastest speed ever achieved in commercial grade hardware in a real-world environment, and is the same as transmitting 44 HD films in a second.
