Researchers from Nokia and GFiber Labs (the experimental arm of Google Fiber) successfully achieved 41.89 Gbps download speeds on a live Google Fiber network. This marks the first time that Nokia’s 50G PON (passive optical network) technology has been used on a Google-owned network, and its one of the only examples of live 50 Gig networking in the United States.
I am surprised that this is a major event, I would have thought this would be a relatively simple progression of the tech.
True. It’d actually be a major event if it survives the ‘Google Honeymoon’.
